    Unless you have an EZ Pass transponder that lets you pass an open station, then you have to stop. Of course only if its open.
    You should read the signs about 1 mi ahead that tell you if its open or closed.
    Hahahahah will turn to boohoohoo if you get caught passing an open station

    Ez Pass won't do squat for you at a weigh station. That device is only for paying tolls. PrePass will let you bypass scales if you get a green light.

    Some of the older scales in NM don't have an Open or Closed sign.They flip the sign backward when closed and upright when Open.

    You're one of two things....totally clueless or a troll. I'm guessing the latter. If however you're just clueless, I would suggest you ask your boss to send you out with a trainer before you end up in jail.

    Some of the older scales in NM don't have an Open or Closed sign.They flip the sign backward when closed and upright when Open.
    True, but you have a good distance of warning before the station itself.
    Whether the sign is manual or automatic.

    It's pretty much a given that all the major NM Weigh stations (on major highways entering the state) will be open 24/7.
    You can take the driver out of the truck but you cant take the truck out of the driver.

    I have been studying the CDL book in prep to go to driving school soon. PLEASE tell me there aren't drivers out there with a current CDL that are as clueless as this guy!? Whats a weigh station, and no logbook??? I might have to rethink this career choice!

    It sure sounds like it. How can you get a CDL without knowing the basic laws that drivers have to follow? I think this example answers the questions: Is there really a driver shortage? and Why do they want to let Mexican drivers in the United States.
