[QUOTE="roundhouse, post: 12166580, member: 220225"]And if you’re gonna be doing it regularly a new iPad is way better to look at Google maps than a phone , to see the entrances and exits and looking for wide ramps to pull over for your first 100 mile load securement checks etc . and don’t forget that in almost every state , all permitted loads much pull into the weigh station and walk your permits inside . Some places , the clerks will walk out to you in the parking lot when they see you roll in . And get some good lights . Don’t get the cheap flashing lights. If your load requires a flashing light , get a good brand name one , and a spare . If your required beacon light stops working enroute you will want to have a spare to install before you get to the next weigh station where they WILL be looking to see if it’s operating .[/QUOTE]
