Prepass Question
Everytime I get to the Super Coop eastbound I-80 in Iowa I get a red light on my prepass.
When I go up the ramp I get the bypass the scale arrow everytime. Why not just give me a green light on the prepass and save me the detour?

They have to pull in a certain percentage of prepass trucks a day, even if you get the bypass it counts.

If you get a red PrePass every time, your company probably has a lousy safety rating. The better the company's rating, the less often the red PrePass light is triggered.

I have got the red light 5 out of 5 times going by the I-80 eastbound Super Coop in Iowa.

Sometimes certain states get a hard-on and start pulling everyone in for a while. They can set the transponder to stop everyone or bypass everyone if they want to. It seems to me that I've gotten green lights every time through Iowa this year, but I haven't been out there in a while. Couldn't swear to it.

Have your company's safety officer call Prepass and find out why your unit
(box) keep getting pulled in at the same weigh station! Something needs to be updated.
