    I went by the scale in umatilla oregon once, my blue box didnt go off and i think the scale was open so i went on by, no one ever came after me tho,, the next time i was that way i did go in there,, stopped twice lol, i hate that scale tho cause you have to exit, go to a redlight then into the sscale back out to the red light and back to the freeway up hill, in my opinoion that scale should be closed or moved to a better location not so far from the freeway from washington to oregon.

    I blew by the scale heading east into St Louis on I70. I was coming out of the TA at the exit just before the scales and didn't realize that the pre pass was befor the get on ramp. I pulled onto the highway and went right on by. I realized it afterwords and kept checking my mirror for smokeys for a few miles but never saw any.
