Around few mile before every weigh stations you will start to see signs like this that are supposed to warn you that you are approaching a weigh station.
In some cases some truck scales can even identify your truck by built in transponder and determine automatically are you qualified for a weight inspections. Some other weigh stations will require all trucks to go trough the check point where they will be inspected. It all depends how advanced is the weigh check point and what is the technology used.
