What We Look for at the Scales

  • October 06, 2022 2:30pm  -  3:30pm
What We Look for at the Scales

Basic Level 1 Inspection criteria for a roadside inspection and the purpose of the Scales is to inspect the size, weight, equipment, and emissions of the vehicles. We will discuss what triggers a Level I Inspection and how a PrePass works at the scales.

What You Will Learn

  • This class will give vehicle owners an idea of precisely what the Officers are looking for when trucks go through the scales.
  • We will also discuss what we consider to be “red flags” that cause us to take a closer look at the truck and the driver’s paperwork.
  • We will discuss what is considered a “Fix-It” ticket vs. a violation vs. an out-of-service (OOS) violation and how they impact your CSA score.
  • Do you have proper operating authority? DOT number?

Target Audience

Anyone who operates a vehicle or vehicles with a GVWR of 10000 lbs. or more and or requires a commercial license or a Hazardous material permit.

Instructors

Mark Fisher and Simon DeCasas, CHP
