Harvey I have been on many ride a longs with police & I can say here at least I have never seen a vehicle weighed that has been in a fatal wreck with the exception of a Tractor Trailer that is. I guess it is kinda like very seldom is a crime scene investigated like on the TV CSI shows. Most Law enforcement agency don't even have the equipment used by TV cops.

Although I do agree with you on the legality of overloading a vehicle. If you are driving a Tractor trailer it is a big deal if you are caught over weight but in all reality it isn't about safety as much as it is about government making money on the fines IMO.
