Do not go texas!!!

I haven't passed an open scalehouse in TX in about 2 years,and I'm in TX several times a month.

 

I did about a year ago. random checks.. I was hand picked just a few months back for a roadside inspection.. by the the time it was finished I felt honered.. heading there now.. ut oh

 

It used to be that way but I see more and more of them open now.... But generall during banker's hours during the week

 

You've been lucky perhaps. Texas is number one.

 

If you get a ticket but you want to fight it, how do you go about it if the ticket was in a state you very rarely go to? Or do you just say screw it and pay it?

 

well you have a few choices

1) say heck with it and pay it
2) hire a lawyer to fight it for you
3) get a load to where you have to be at court and appear

either way you going to lose some money but it just depends on how much you will lose. depending on the ticket it may not even be worth fighting and just pay it and move on. Others however one may want to goto court and fight it.

Heard somewhere on here that if the ticket says you must appear I would forgo the lawyer and show up or get the lawyer and show up. Someone mentioned on here that they just hired a lawyer and found out that license was suspended because on the ticket it stated that he/she had to appear.

not a lawyer not pretending to be one, but this would be about the best advice anyone could give you besides just dont pay it, and never goto texas, and just throw your license away....lmao....

 

To the original op other than border inspection stations I close my curtains when I pull around back the less they can see the better

 

Only been hassled twice I. Texas, once at the Childress scale, then in Dallas, on I30 receive a bogus speeding ticket, witch I fought and won, ticket was thrown out

 

A company I drove for 3 yrs,I delivered to Dallas once a week then pick up in Fort Worth then on to Houston for next day delivery.Never in those 3 yrs have a crossed an open scale because I always made sure id go past the scale before 5 am.But a trooper did stop me just to do an inspection.
