I’ve gotten back from a 15 hr road trip and saw a lot of weigh stations for semi trucks. How does a truck driver go through that?

They drive over scales built into the road. There are sensors built into the main highway, and they trigger something abnormal, the truck driver is signaled to exit to the actual weigh station off the highway for further investigation with more accurate equipment.
