Probably the same ####### that got me outside of Katy and wrote me for a crooked mud flap on the trailer. Yes... because the bottom edge was not parallel with the ground.
I’ve got to admit, I just don’t give a flying #### anymore. My truck is well maintained, but hasn’t had a bath in a while. And I keep my bag of Doritos on the dash, amongst other ####, when I go through the weigh station.Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
Yeah if you too clean down here in big Tex near Houston and south a clean truck with no load will get you pulled over. I heard that on the news it’s because they think your smuggler druggy

When I bought my truck, I leased to a company that kept me local and under 100 air miles.
The first time I crossed the scales, I got pulled in. Clean inspection on me but was told my carrier was near getting shut down with a 95 CSA.
The next week, I was pulled on the highway and told the same thing.
Two weeks later, I was pulled on another highway and told the same thing.
I think if your CSA score is crap, you're going to get pulled. And you better have your ducks in a row.
It only takes 15 or 20 minutes to do a good pre-trip. Just do it and fix whatever is wrong.
Do a big inspection yourself twice a month. If it's your truck, you have no reason not to find all the problems and every reason to find them.Dave_in_AZ and nightgunner Thank this. -
Feedman and Doing_flatbed_nc Thank this.

I handed it to him, " Ok I'm giving you a level 3, park, and bring in the rest of paper. "
When I went in he handed me back my log, I knew I was good, and he's tapping on his keyboard, I was leaning on the counter and could see his pc screen, and it was blinking a BIG red 93, in this box with the company's info.
I was thinking, I have no clue what that means, but I'm certain it's not good.Feedman Thanks this. -
It takes a long time to get that satisfactory rating back. And in the mean time, you’ll be drowning in insurance payments.
