    Keep Ol'hand's plan handy for a heavy backhaul, if that happens. Glad you made it safe.

    I am replying for the purpose of letting Big Brother NSA with a record. I never run overweight so I do not worry about issues like this and shame on you if you do.

    Yeah I stay out of those rest areas on purpose during daylight hours. Hate that stretch of highway between 76 and Columbus.

    Fyi, can't count on the NB scale to be closed day or night. I used to go through there nightly and they're open more than not.

    They hold grudges too. One of our (idiot) drivers didn't pull in with a permit load, and didn't read the permit either. He was supposed to take 70 to Columbus. They not only hammered him, they yanked every permit isssued to the carrier as a whole. And I got the red light every night for months afterward because I was guilty by association.
