Been routing my ### around the scales. I will not willingly drive over a scale during the blitz, unless there is no way around it. Crossed the mn st croix scale today only due to no logical way around it. Got bypassed, tomorrow I wont see a scale. Friday ill route myself around the one scale I would see.
I57 Ex 335 Petro for the night. Been from Green Bay down to Muskogee and back to Chicago and only rolled across one scale in Kansas. No issues, just rolled on thru! However, The scales on I57 south of Monee has been real busy according to several driver Ive spoken with this evening. If you're rolling south on I57 in Illinois watch for that scale.
Running well. No blitz on me yet. One scale closed the second the signs called me in and red changed to green Alls well so far.
Went past like 12 scales today. 3 were open. Got the green light past 2, pulled in through one and got the green light there to keep on going. Yesterday didn't run past any open scales. Ended up doing a load check in one of the closed ones.
Yes,we still have Madison lumber, I rated that a very cool trip too. They have\are resurfacing some of those state highways up there. I did not need a cut but noticed the barber closed during the day there in Scranton. Maybe he's on vacation.
Had a driver send me a log change request asking if I would move the drive time from 0800 to 1050 to off duty so he could make on time delivery.
Yeah, not likely to happen. I've got 7 days left I'm going to do those last 7 days by the book and say adios with style.
