Weigh Station Scale Ticket

Here is what I think you should do. I actually did this when I got a new tractor and was too cheap to pay the CAT scale ticket out of my pocket. Next time you cross a supercoop park and go inside. Ask the scalemaster to printout a weight ticket. Then go back across on the static scale and follow their instructions. Sometimes the weighmaster will bring the weigh ticket out and sometimes you have to go back and park and get it yourself.

 

Tennessee and Kentucky both will give you printed axle weights if you want.

 

Florida wont. When I was down there last month asked the scale maiden if I could have the printed paper she was carrying. With a resounding no I could not!!

 

I never stayed around long enough to find out. When I see the green light I'm out of there. I live by the philosophy that no good can come from hanging around at the coop longer than required.

 

Sometimes you don't have any choice. Tennessee pulled me in for a bridge violation, it was covered by the permit so I was good. I asked them how they knew and he printed off a sheet that showed my axle weights and spacings, it was pretty freaken accurate.

 

Were you permitted for a longer bridge or shorter bridge?

 

I think you encountered what some euphemistically call a female dog. I can not remember if I got a copy or I wrote the weights down but I got my weight information after stopping at one of the northbound I 75 scales in Florida.
