Eventually you will figure it out that there is never anything to be gained by willingly going into a weigh station. As long as the go-around does not add more than an hour to your trip you will be time and money ahead to find a way around and use it. They will educate you on the wisdom of what I am saying if you keep going in there.
People do that crossing over from WI to MN on 94 by going about 10 miles North to Stillwater and crossing the river there. That is far worse because they are double dinging folks that cross the Stillwater bridge thus avoiding the scales. I see trucks pulled over in Stillwater all the time and they go over EVERYTHING on the truck in addition to scaling it.
I can second that they are getting nasty in MN on all manner of commercial pickup trucks. I see at least 2-3 per week stopped and the state commercial police going over the trucks. Lights, brakes, plates, you name it they go over it and the fines add up fast.
