Before we start the checking, make sure the vehicle has a valid license plate and that you know the maximum loaded weight of the complete unit or gross vehicle weight (GVW) and the truck/tractor weight only, called the TARE weight. Then, conduct a pre-trip inspection.

The tires of the truck also are important. The pattern of wear will tell you if they are under- or overinflated. To find out, check the tread depth for even wear. If the tires have more wear in the center, they are over-inflated; if there’s more wear along the outside edges, they are under-inflated.
