Just some of the stupid things I see

Gotta love my spread. Never had problems. Actually got called in a scale before. Women said I'm over my axles on trailer. I looked at her and asked if she looks at thetruck or just the scale. Then #2 come out from the back somewhere and says he's on a spread and can be up to 40k on the trailer, your good. She still looked confused as i walked out saying have a nice day.

 

Amazing, that they would have someone working the scales that did not even know the regulations.

 

You know a lot of states don't even have dot working in the chicken coops any more. It's all hired help cause it was costing the states to much to be paying dot to be sitting at the coops. They want them on the roads.

 

I'd bet a vast majority of drivers don't know the regulations either....which leaves them vulnerable to scale personnel who do not know the regulations or to carriers who try to stretch the regulations too far.

It's YOUR livelihood. Read that little green book. You've got to KNOW the rules before you can bend them in your favor.

 

But that's where all the money is made and lost. In the state of confusion or misunderstandment.

 

Bull squeeze. The money is made when people violate law and regu,ation. Yeah mistakes can be made thats what the court's and DataQ's are for.

Revenue generation is a straw man argument spread by those dancing outside of said laws.

 

Laws were made to be broken.
