WEIGH TO GO AGAINST TRUCKSBy PATRICK GALLAHUE, NY Post
Law-breaking truckers could soon face the digital scales of justice.
The city's Transportation Department is set to test a weight-activated traffic camera that adjusts to bust trucks that are too heavy.
Using technology similar to red-light traffic cameras, this spycam is triggered by a truck's tonnage. When big rigs rumble down the street, a sensor weighs the truck and snaps a shot of the license plate.
"The systems that we are testing are potential tools to help keep overweight trucks off our streets," said DOT spokesman Seth Solomonow.

It's about time.
That will do wonders for the sate of our road's.
I guess thats a good thing, especially for the crumbling roads in the area.
DOT should put some of KFIR's "loads"
on their digital scales of justice!
I think a "digital exam" is also required
to see if they're hiding anything up their asses!
