If you have to ask that question, you probably is not a trucker. A weigh station is not a place to get your car or boat or truck weighs. It is a place where states to enforce federal regulations and state weight. It is also where states enforce log book (service hours), regulations and permit requirements, as IFTA, registration and various state permits.
Different types of stations, truckers have to deal. There's your plain, old regular weighing station, as found in Ohio, Illinois, Georgia and most states. There are ports of entry, as found in Wyoming, Arizona and Utah. There are inspections agriculture, as found in Florida and California. There are immigration checkpoints located mainly in the Southwest. There are monitoring stations and roadside inspections random and sofa areas-will find scattered around the country in places not identified and mostly unknown. You can not count on "law enforcement" which are expected to be at all times.
Part of the confusion comes from the many truck weigh stations names. We call weight stations, by course. But he also called scales. Sometimes we call Cooperatives. And chicken. And Chicken Houses. We ask other truckers on the CB radio, "which is making Ohio? "(Or Colorado, or Alabama). And the answer might be" all locked up. "Or," cooperatives are open and the weight of the wagon. " Or, "are to control the pressure of land." The weighing station would have "the big word out." Or it could be "working." Never know until you get there.
Some truckers use of transponders on their truck to get "pre-clearance" in many places. There PrePass, Norpass, Bestpass … of all the throws. Truckers who get the green light get to keep rolling down the road without throwing in the weighing station. Truckers who receives "red light" to stop.
Most permanent weigh stations have signs in the approach to the highway that light up to tell drivers whether are open or closed. Some even try to color code their signs, but the average trucker truck passes so that we can not even begin to track who does what and where, so that particular tactic, it seems a little more to do. Some weigh stations have signs that light as the truck passes tell if it can continue running, even if you have a pre-clearance transponder. Some weigh stations are set to appear unexpectedly by the DOT or state police and have only the most basic of signs, arrows, or a truck driver cones are known to open at the front.
If you are looking for a place to weigh your car or personal vehicle, you are not looking for a weighing station. Looking for a public scale. You'll find these at truck stops some trucks and loaders to try flyingj.com, catscale.com, am-best.com or a truck stop guide.
