RE: one more question on my mind

they do and some of them read trucking papers and even come on here and read eo but don't post, and when i got a ticket in williamsburg va last year officer knew all about ooida as his dad was a memeber for over 30 year's, he was a motor bike officer and kind of cut him off, williamsburg va has a bad traffic pattern in center of town with all these different lanes coming in and not going into williamsburg alot he understood, but said still shouldn't have cut me off and have to give you a ticket, he was nice about it, and traffic court judge was nice to, and things worked out ok

Thank you, MDB1 for that link to the OOIDA article; very helpful information. The issues discussed in this topic provide yet another reason to use PrePass in your truck. Each time you are green-lighted past a scale, is one time less that a scale cop may ask to search your truck.
