Thanks no worries, I was wondering what was up. Lots of DOT set up in Tennessee rest areas also this week.

Tell me about it!!! I got (falsely) written up at Ocala, FL SB weigh station for a "chafing" brake line. Had it checked at a Wingfoot shop, and everything was A-OK, and the mechanic signed off on it thusly. Now, who at the D.O.T. do I send the 1/2 hour labor charge to, to get reimbursed for the phony write-up???!!!
