Overweight ticket

Yes there is right on the other side of the scales that that gave me the ticket. Literally about a mile and a half to late

 

About 50 miles outside of Yakima Washington on 97.. here's a strange thing I went across 2 dot scales before Klamath falls and got the green light on both of them.. maybe they were busy and just gave me the green light I'm not sure but after that I figured I was good. I guess just my own stupidity and lack of experience I will admit I learned a lot about what not to do this trip and it will never happen again.

 

At the end of the day it's my fault although there were some pretty screwed-up circumstances surrounding this load. I have never driven truck in the lower 48 before always just in Alaska. With that being said I think I'll just stick with Alaska and Canada been driving up here for three years and never had an overweight ticket only one violation and all that time a non-working backup light on the tractor.

 

Could not slide the tandems because I was heading into California so they were set at 40 ft
Note California requires trailer tandems on a 53 to be at the 40 ft mark to the middle of the back tandem axle also sliding the fifth wheel would not help me at all because I could have only got a couple of notches out of it and the 6000 was on the trailer tandems.
ended up waiting on another truck and we took two pallets of apples off and put on his truck which made both of us overweight then we had to Carrie a pallet of apples by hand up over the load to the front of the trailer to even out both loads. What an absolute nightmare.
