If I were you, Id run with it, any problems show the lower scale ticket and they will know what the problem is. This is a act of nature not bad loading and it happens sometimes. I believe the most they will do to you is make you go out back and get rid of as much of it as you can. maybe not though, they might not want it blocking anything out back. Just kick as much off as you can then go through the scale...lol

well at $3.00 a min and 273.00 total at the blue becon (sp?) we are legal!!

so we are off again for pheonix for tomorrow.....we will see.

We left it up to Arrow since this is their trailer and they paid for the deicing.

Since weigh stations have nothing to do with safety and EVERYTHING to do with revenue enhancement for the states you will get a ticket for being over because of ice. Which state the ticket is written in really has no bearing.
