I was on i40 going by statesville nc and the prepass sensor starts beeping and flashing red so i thought i was going to have to pull in but then the sign on the shoulder lit up saying to bypass so figured let's choose the easier option there. I saved it on my dashcam just in case someone was to chase me down for bypassing but it never happened.
Ever get the red light on prepass at the but the sign lights up and says to bypass the

F that, i do exactly what my light says, regardless of what scale sign says, trooper pulls you over and you're like "the sign said bypass" and your prepass is up there blinking like "red...red...red...red...red..."
the prepass keeps blinking for a while afterwards as your alibi if they chase youBillyBobFrank, Big Road Skateboard and Gridaxe5588 Thank this. -

I had the opposite occur at that same scale. My Prepass gave me the green light but the sign said enter the weigh station. What would you do there? I pulled in.
BillyBobFrank Thanks this. -
Once I pulled in and parked, went in to ask about it.
I was told to follow the signal, not the sign. They have it right on their computer screen that I was given the bypass signal.BillyBobFrank, 201773, rollin coal and 1 other person Thank this. -
Nobody will fine you for going into the scalehouse. I've done it both ways.
