    So I guess if I’m in a log truck and under 65’ I could legally get away with it

    Yes you can get around it. Doing it in the daylight is a pretty bold move just because you get back on close to the scale.

    Hooker Creek is a rough road and narrow road, took it before and was constantly paranoid cause it's obvious you'd be going out of your way to go around the scale taking it, CHP posts up on there all the time as well, now I take the 36 and turn on to the end of Bowman road by the fire station, much smoother and doesn't look so suspicious
     
    Rugerfan Thanks this.
