Manitoba, I have been weighted twice with random scales. They always go by door sticker here not registration. Was scaled in a random check spot in BC. I seen 5ths being disconnected, 3/4 tons way over gross was the 3 I seen unhooked. I guess they won’t let them on the mountain roads with a overweight payload on the truck?
Also seen them pulling RVs and trucks just outside in Minneapolis just past Cabalas,
They pulled all trucks over, mirroring for deletes and weighting RVs
So it happens out there and once they realize it’s a great revenue stream it will exploded, With all the resources available today there is no excuse to be overweight
Cvse did an rv blitz on a long weekend heading out of Vancouver, also checking for heavy endorsement for those with trailers over 10,000 lbs.
My co worker had to rescue his friends 5th wheel because cvse would not let his friend drive it. And he said there was a line up of truck campers on the side of the road as well.
