USA - Technology lets regulators monitor big rigs wirelessly
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - Associated Press - December 02, 2004 -- From more than a half-mile away, officers at the Interstate 40 weigh station saw a problem with a tractor-trailer rig using wireless technology.
And before the truck had pulled to a stop, they'd already checked its brakes using their laptops.
The problems were contrived, but the technology was real Wednesday in a demonstration of what someday could lead to nonstop weigh-ins for big rigs or even "virtual inspection stations."
