Ress an nounced today an analysis has been made of the weighing sta tion operation since it was taken over by the department of roads and irrigation in June. Of the 310,363 trucks weighed, 1.2 percent were in violation. An average of all the scales show that 7.3 percent were op erating within the 5 oercent tol erance on axle and the 3 Dercent on gross. An analysis made ! earlier in the year from October i 1953 to Mareh 1954 showed 2.7 percent of the trucks weighed were in violation and 8.7 per- j cent were within the tolerance. ! Thus, there has been a re duction of 1.5 percent in arrests and 1.4 percent in the number of trucks within the tolerance. Basic reasoning behind the tol- erance law. LB 114. was to eive the trucker latitude by taking into account unforeseen contin- gencies such as ic and snow and load shifting which might cause his load to weigh over the legal limit. Consequently the number of truckers operat- iner within the tolerance should be the difference between the number that were in violation before the tolerance law went into effect and those now in violation. Prior to the passage of the bill only 3.2 percent of the truckers weighed violated the 18,000 pound limitations. Dur ing the past 5 months 1.2 per cent have been in violation. Consequently, 2 percent of the trucks should now be operat ing within the tolerance pro vided by law.' However, records show that 7.3 percent are in tolerance. It would appear that the tolerance provisions are be ing used to increase pay load and not entirely for the pur pose intended.
