The Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) shared a video that gives you a closer look at the inner workings of a weigh station.

The video shared on March 6, 2025, follows a day in the life THP Trooper Brian Ramsey as he inspects commercial vehicles at a Tennessee weigh station.

“Ever driven past a weigh station and wondered, “What goes on in there?”  THP Motor Carrier Plus Unit does more than just check weights—they’re out there keeping our roads safe by inspecting trucks, ensuring brakes work properly, and making sure loads are secure. It’s not about writing tickets; it’s about preventing crashes and keeping everyone safe on Tennessee’s highways!” THP said.
