out of the way to the weigh station?

Goodmorning, i'm new here too this board and stuff, i could set here all day reading these forums, i see trucking hasnt change since i staredv in 1990, i've been off road now for 3 years and thinking going back out, since i'm a loner type person and enjoy my peice and quite, but anyway this forum had me thinking the time i got stop in okie, there was a okie dot pulled over a big rig, gave it on the spot dot insp, i blew right by , didnt think nuthen about it, he chased me down , made me turn around the feild cause the road was barely wide enuff for one truck and got behind the other truck, then asked if he didnt see my lights on , i said yes and got over, , didnt you know we was inspecting trucks today, i said no, ti said there was no signage anywere he said my car is my sign, go figure, but i passed and let me go, kinda feel sorry for that farmer and his torn up feild, Everett.

 

Trust me it's changed... Welcome to the Site...

 

80,000 lb truck.

500 lb motorcycle.

Do the math.

 

Your ARSE is in jail! Actually because it was a cop...UNDER the jail!

 

I know that one real well, I see the sign for it everytime I have a load from SLC down to Texas. I always go to the Loves, park for a few minutes then head East.`

 

Only if they saw me.

(Just kidding. Running over police officers is generally frowned upon in polite company, so don't actually do it, OK kids?)

 

This is some good advice and funny!!!

 

That is true, But it cheaper to pull in the check point and get it over with. People don't know how bad it is as far as scale goes. highway patrol have mobile scale. DPS have them to. Now the city cops have them to. They get us on the freeway and on the city streets.

 

Hey Rollover, I just went that way near Gallup a couple weeks ago. I had to go east on 40 to Albuquerque. I just pretended I didn't see that sign instead of doing that big round trip. As Steve Urkel says......Oooooooooops, did I do thaaat?

 

Yah, that's way to far OOR to drive and just think of the pollution from the truck! I'm just helping out the ecology by turning east instead of west because some idiot law maker wants a legal truck to roll over a plate! If they want their tax money so bad then pay for one of those super duper cameras to record the DOT numbers when you go by it on the ramp!
