    Isn't that the scale house the swift driver ran through? Hence why it's not there.

    I'm not sure about that, but the building is not there on Google maps, just the foundation, so possibly.

    Yup. Edit: I meant the scale was closed and he took the ramp anyway. Not sure why. web1_IMG_0751.jpg

    I guess he decided they weren't weighing him that day and he didn't care what they had to say about it

    If we can help illegal, irresponsible drivers dodge scales, how come we can't discuss bypassing emissions?

    Why don't you get a permit ? Or grow a set and go back to the shipper and have them make you legal

    My neck of the woods, and no scales. News to me the reasons as posted above, but wow. My take, is @'olhand said. . . no DOT woes. That's the way I run it, and I haul tankers. No weight issues, just a great way to roll~! Let us know how it turns out, O/P. Be safe.
