what is the purpose of weigh scales on the interstate/highways
In: Other
Trucks can haul up to 80,000 lbs. the average passenger vehicle weighs about 3,000 lbs.
Think of how much time it takes to stop your car if there is a traffic jam in front of you and you’re going 80 mph. Now imagine trying to stop if your car weighed 26 times as much as it already does.
Overweight truck loads are extremely dangerous.
