The Scranton Police Motor Carrier Enforcement unit ensures the safety of the motoring public and contributes to maintaining the integrity of the city roadways. Overweight commercial vehicles can cause damage and crack the roads, requiring the city to spend money and resources on costly road repairs.
The unit inspects trucks and their drivers for safety and equipment compliance. This includes checking brakes, suspension, tires and safety related equipment. They also have portable truck scales to weigh trucks they believe are overloaded in excess of weight limits.
