I know I can just use the road atlas but I was wondering if anyone knew of any apps or websites that assist in dodging weigh stations.

I'm rarely over weight on my axels and it's even less common for me to be over gross but I'm currently over on both (The one time a shipper loads me and they mess everything up.) It's been a pain in the ass to have to keep pulling over to check the map and find a route around the scales every time I get near one.

I only have 1 more scale to get around this trip and I already found my route. This is more for future reference.

The roads can handle only so much weight at once so state gov wiegh trucks with 3 or more axles and charge them accordingly to fix and repair the roads and bridges. that money never does that, but it's the though that counts, really.

Some states it doesn't matter how many axles. Florida for example. You're technically supposed to pull into that agriculture station even if you're just renting a uhaul. They'd pull me in all the time even when I was pulling an empty flat bed...
