    I came across the scale in Coutts one time with a flat drive. Had to call the local tire guy, who inspected it, aired it back up and sent me on my way. One of those “air through” valve stem covers had stuck open after gaging the pressure the night before.
    Stuff happens.

    Next time cut the tire completely off, leaving just the rim.
