Crete Carrier - A Year In Review - Fall 2013 Going Forward

Per the prepass guide, your prepass unit has the final say. The only exceptions are the few states that want you to disregard the green light IF you are hauling a HAZ Mat load.

http://www.prepass.com/forms/other forms/bypass restrictions.pdf

 

If you look closely just about every scale with prepass sensors has a sign that says "follow in cab transponder" or something close to it. If you get a green light on prepass and the sign says to pull in bypass it.

 

I just had my unit replaced. In the packet that came with it there is a paragraph that says ignore road indicator signs, follow the in cab signal....and like the man said...green means go.

 

I just sent dispatch this

im ready for a load
i have empty trl 227026

Something like that is my guess. Amirite!?

 

Sounds pretty normal to me... except it should be for a multi stop load

 

I'm a guy. I never read the directions.

 

All wrong! It was, of course


What mt do you have?

and it was a 100 mile deadhead and a 490 mile live unload Sunday afternoon, and I ended up getting to the shipper late
