I was in the process of running that scale in 1983 when a 4 wheeler moved into my lane and I had to slow. I was chased to the Louisiana rest area and asked to come back. Took me to the local jail house. $110 fine and don’t do it again.
Ever blow by a Weigh Station when it was open?

I always avoid that one in Oklahoma on 35 crossing into Ok from Tx. Take thackerville exit. Get back on right at that dollar tree.
Blew pass the small one on 75 in ok going south right before that big hill near turner falls, pulled over and waited, no chase. -
My QUALCOMM told me to pass about two weeks ago a scale station in Indiana. I got chased down and pulled over. I had to show him on the history that it gave me a bypass. The officer that pulled me over was polite and professional but let me tell you he wanted to give me a ticket bad. Lol
Lonesome Thanks this. -

I got nailed in Halton outside of Toronto. Never seen the sign until the last minute and couldn’t get over to the right in rush hour traffic and missed it. $450 I think.

Especially if we’re talking about a dirty cop and it sounds like it, what’s to stop him?supergreatguy Thanks this. -
But in this case, I’m pretty sure there’s a record kept of the bypass order. I mean he could’ve wrote me a ticket but I would’ve contested it and had proof that I was given a bypass. I think he either just made a mistake or pulled over the wrong truck.MACK E-6 Thanks this. -
That Iuka Ms scale ain’t no joke. They chase every time. Your better off to just take your lumps lol. That said if you go in they are more than fair. Coming outta Alabama even with a Ms Harvest permit which gives me 84 gross I’m always heavy. If White is on duty I get my paperwork looked at and told lighten up next time lol. Sad when you know each other by name and ask how’s the family lol
kemosabi49, Last Call, Coffey and 1 other person Thank this.
