Weigh scale locations/Ports of entry - Virginia
Any person operating a vehicle with a gross vehicle weight or registered gross weight of more than 10,000 pounds is required to drive into a permanent weighing station for inspection when directed to do so by highway signs. A person instructed by a bypass system to bypass a permanent weighing station may do so unless directed to drive onto the scales for weight inspection by an officer or size and weight compliance agent. A police officer may require the operator of a truck to drive a distance not to exceed 10 road miles to a scale facility for weight inspection. Refusal to drive onto scales for inspection is a misdemeanor.
