Russ - do not rely on information from a chp officer unless he is a commercial certified level 1. They wear blue duty uniforms (bdu) and either drive a black and white F-250 (Mobile Road Enforcement MRE)pickup or are assigned to a scale facility. They are the experts that the tan uniforms call for back up when it comes to big stuff. These experts live, eat, and drink combo vehicles, license classes, and are the TRUE WEIGHT POLICE in CA. The pickups are equipped with portable scales (accurate to 100 lbs)and they always have ticket books waiting for your personal info. Press hard four copies!!
