hope you didnt pull in. if the sign says closed, go on by regardless of what the transponder says. prepass is a good thing when the scales leave it alone. lately they seem to be messing with it.

Was this the Jackson scale?
A few months back one of my straight trucks on the eastbound side received a green light and was chased down for running the scale. The driver showed the officer the transponder and it still had the green light and all went well after a roadside inspection.

ya, isnt that some crap. the states have been doing some weird stuff lately. one good culprit is the hope, ar scale. you can prepass that thing for weeks then its weeks of pull in. my state of il. is another good one. we almost never get bypassed. only a certain few.

No I did not pull in. Just thought it was funny. It was down by Knoxville.

Only three reasons you get redlighted by PrePass ... (to the best of my knowledge)

1. Your carrier rating begs an inspection, (we will inspect you into compliance)

2. Random

3. Scales have it set so no one by passes

you are exactly right. thats what they have been doing alot lately at certain scales.

100% pull in for days. some that only open rarely are always 100% pull in.
