    I stand corrected, it was this poster that said this, not crzyjarmans. I never seen these signs he says the scales have.

    Seem's like a couple of member's have seen these signs that say to by-pass the scales if there full, but can't say where they seen them in California ?:biggrin_25513:

    I've seen'em, I just can't for the life of me remember where I saw them so I know they exist. I wanna say that coop on 15 somewhere between los Angeles and san Diego on the south bound side is one of the places that has that sign.

    You travel all over this great country of ours, ear to ear, forehead to chin and see a lot of stuff, but for me, its gettin harder and harder to remember it all!

    If I haul hazmat load in my dry van and get a green light I never enter w/s, I just follow the signs. Last load was hazmat I drove thru 4 w/s in cali I-10, I-5 and got green light on all them. Where does it say u have to enter w/s when hauling hazmat even with green light?

    Not all coops are like that but I have seen some where they will have a sign basically stating that if your hauling hazmat, produce, livestock, wide loads/oversize loads, ect. you have to stop anyways regardless of a green light on your prepass.

    In Ohio hazmat has to weigh. There is a sign prior to every scalehouse. That is the only state that does with Prepass.
