    Weigh stations are nothing more than a clip joint. And with states and the federal government likely facing bankruptcy over this severe cold virus going around, they probably trying to create revenue. Unquestionably that’s likely what’s going on.

    They don't. English is NOT their first language either.

    One made me open up with a load of plastic containers.

    She goes,"What are they going to put in those?"

    I responded, "How the F would know?"

    She was pissed. LMFAO
    Stamped the bols, and put a communist state seal on the trailer ROFLMFAO

    They were hoping to find something on your truck that would allow them to take a donation from you.

    Sometimes they will take mine and make copies. They always ask me if its going to a jobsite , i guess they have to make copies if its going to a jobsite but not a warehouse . Weird. The last load i wanted to mess with them and i had a 6 stop load in cali, and had 8 papers for each load. I handed them the whole packet with a smile and said "they are all going to jobsites." LOL well that time he just told me "have a good one"
