trucks

Say no more to longer delay.  The operator of the two longest expressways traversing Central Luzon hailed the recent order of the Land Transportation Office (LTO) to subject once again trucks transporting agricultural products and other goods for possible violation of anti-overloading laws.

Recently the LTO chief Arturo C. Lomibao gave the order to all regional directors and deputized personnel lifting the November 2008 moratorium on apprehension of trucks overloaded with agricultural and other perishable cargoes.  The reason for temporary suspension, such as lowering food prices and ensuring the efficient flow of food supply nationwide, will be eliminated.

A Hi-tech device.  The WIM instantly to calculates the load of truck once the vehicle passes trough a dedicated lane which is equipped with a sensor, camera and computer.  That’s why the trucks will no longer suffer delay especially at NLEX because of newly installed device called weigh-in-motion (WIM), which check every truck while in motion.
