Are you not with Wolding any longer?
OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.
My company WANTS us to go through the scales, and even encourages us to ASK for an inspection. But they also allow us to use the Drivewyze app, if we want. They will reimburse us the monthly fee, to use the app.
I tried it during the free 30 day trial, and cancelled and deleted it within 2 weeks. Why? I have zero issues hitting the scale. I also have had 3 clean lvl 1 and a clean lvl 2. Which means more $$$ for me.
I do not pull in and ask to be inspected, though. But the last DOT officer told me that our trucks are only pulled in, simply because they know it will be a very fast and clean inspection, and not take too much of their time, and it fulfills their "inspections per month quota."
My suggestion, is to just hit the scales, you don't lose much time, and a clean inspection ALWAYS looks good on the csa , especially to an o/o.

i am still with team blue Grumpy. Just wondering what experienced drivers think of the 2 bypass systems, and if they find one more beneficial than the other to keep you rolling.
