APPLICATION OF WEIGH-IN-MOTION (WIM) TECHNOLOGIES IN OVERWEIGHT VEHICLE ENFORCEMENT

Open publisher page 7 citations

Abstract

A variety of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) have been tested and proven to be practical solutions for commercial vehicle safety enforcement. Many systems have already been deployed in the USA and abroad. Many other systems are being tested and refined for future deployment. A system that has been in use for many years is weigh-in-motion (WIM). While the practice of weighing heavy trucks at highway speeds has been in use for several years, the systems continue to be refined in order to achieve optimal performance. This paper examines the feasibility and applications of weigh-in-motion systems in overweight vehicle enforcement in today's 24-hour per day environment.
