Drivers;

Any reports, good or bad, on Roadcheck 2013?

Any really questionable violations?

Give us the dirt.

Thanks,

Most scales I have passed was closed but Ohio was targeting flatbeds in rest areas. I got waved on at the few scales that were open.

Originally I was going to go home but decided I would just stay out and keep doing my job the way I always do because I don't want to bow down to the tyranny of the DOT. There were a lot of people that looked like they had issues at the scale on the north side of DC.

Not a thing going on here, only the baby snow shoe bunnies playing in the yard. I roll out on Friday for a short run with the wife going with me.

Iowa, last night, around 1 AM. Lots of level 3's, with real close logbook scrutiny. The tickets were flying.

The westbound scale at MM 6 on I-76 in Ohio has been doing brisk business with lots of trucks parked in back and the repair trucks moving among them. $$$.

To all;

Thanks for the "alerts" and updates. Surely this helps your fellow drivers know where the action is.

Anyone receive any "questionable" violations where you felt the inspector subjected you to unreasonable scrutiny?

Did anyone receive violations that were not deserved?

Thanks for your input. Be safe.

Green Lights in Missouri for us but.... saw lots of traffic inside the scale with tire trucks in attendance.

Got stopped and passed with no violations and had technically a small infraction but the officer doing my inspection said she didn't want to mess up an otherwise spotless inspection for something that small...though we had bonded in shortness solidarity so maybe she was biased! :)
