Are weigh stations a waste?

It's not magic you can do that, it's just a simple fact you can ... if you want to tear up roads at a faster pace. Plus, we have at least 10 times more truck density then Canada. We don't need a bunch of these greenhorns down here trying to e-stop 90k lbs. It's all many can do to safely manage 80k.

 

By chance last name "Overhand" out of ABQ NM? Story goes they filled radiator with 38cal holes to finally stop 'em. (I was working for "DGM" at the time)

For all ye smartphone freaks out there . . . how come no real time 'app' for coops 'open' or 'closed'?

 

You can subscribe to coops open, but it is relying on the drivers to be truthful.

 

I''ve had drivers lie on that app and the CB before.

 

I do not use the app, but I have heard them telling the coop was closed as trucks were crossing it.

 

I feel they are a waste of valuable time,i could do with out them.

 

what about port of entries,lol?

 

The ones that pull everyone in PrePass or not are a waste of fuel.

The intended route was 3mi west of that position, which, being an orange route in the atlas, much friendlier. Suffice it to say this won't happen again. The wicked part is the first mile wasn't remarkable. Just a lil narrow as all 3 and 4 digit KY state routes are. Then, just when you're thinking I got this whipped and just gonna be slow and no big deal, around a bend and oh my god thats steep. Downshifting party all the way down to 3 of 13, grossing 78k. Guessing from a topo view, it's about a 400' rise in under a half mile.
