Weigh Station Alerts! 5-21-08 La Cienega, NM, and Troy, OH

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

New Mexico DOT is set up at the weigh station at exit 267 on I 25. The reports we are getting say there are no portable scales set up at the location, but that officers are performing paperwork and vehicle inspections. They’ve got the magnifying glasses and the creepers out- make sure that your paperwork is in order and your vehicle is up to par if you’re running I 25 between Albuquerque and Santa Fe. The activity is reported to be on north bound I 25 but they can set up just as easily on the south bound ramp for south bound trucks. Most likely, this activity will cease by early afternoon but that is not a guarantee. Thanks to Fast Eddie for the info!

Ohio Commercial Vehicle Enforcement units are set up at exit 74 off of I 75. Yesterday, OCVE was patrolling the freeway. Today, they are tagging truckers, escorting them off the exit (exit 74) to the road next to Wal-Mart and performing inspections. If you’re traveling along the I 75 corridor, we suggest you make sure your equipment and your paperwork is in order.

Weigh Station Alert! 5-20-08 West Central Ohio I 75

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

Ohio Commercial Vehicle Enforcement is out on the prowl today along the I 75 corridor. A Commercial Vehicle Enforcement officer is located at the north bound I 75 rest area near mile marker 81. Officers have been targeting truckers along I 75 and pulling them off into the rest areas. Officers are also reported to pull truckers over at exit 74. They escort the drivers off the exit to the road alongside Wal-Mart for vehicle inspections. The only consolation is that if a driver or his vehicle is placed out of service, there is an Outback Steak House on the road. We suggest that if you are traveling the I 75 corridor, you get your paperwork in order.
