[QUOTE="rushfan, post: 1059728, member: 1631"] I understand the overweights will start to accumulate, even though we are not at fault. It's something the company and union need to get straight. Yes, both trailers were 40,000#. The gross weight limit here is 105,000#. Mine was over 125,000#! Yes, there were court costs involved. I was on our admin assistant like flies on [IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG][IMG]*[/IMG] to get it paid. The assistant said he got into an arguement with a lady in Atlanta over the fine. She said she sent him the check to pay the court-when in fact she only sent the $87.00 for the overweight trailers-not the $1400 for the set being overweight. So were it not paid by tomorrow, there would be a warrant out for my arrest. We have had a feeder driver get arrested due to non-payment of overweight fines. The officer at the scales told me the overweights will be on the "CDL record" not personal record. The problem arises if there are continually overweight trailers. The shop steward told me they are easily explainable, but I'm still doing my own research. I've learned at UPS not to listen to anyone regarding overweights etc. One has to do the research themselves. My point is CYA! No I didn't gain 50 in feeder, only 10-cholesterol is under 100, same with blood sugars. No knee or disc replacement surgeries here. And yes, when I retire, I will still be able to walk upright-unlike many of my package bretheren and sisters. [/QUOTE]
