Want to learn more about PrePass?
Visit www.PrePass.com or call 1-800-PREPASS (773-7277).

PrePass is an advanced technology that enables qualified commercial vehicle drivers to electronically comply with safety, weight and credential requirements, eliminating the need to stop at designated weigh stations, port-of-entry facilities and agricultural interdiction facilities. Cleared vehicles are then able to "bypass" the facility while traveling at highway speed.
Vehicles participating in the PrePass program have their safety records and credentials routinely verified with state & federal agencies to ensure adherence to the safety and bypass criteria established by PrePass and member states. If an approaching PrePass-equipped vehicle’s weight and credentials are found to be satisfactory, a green light and audible signal from the windshield mounted PrePass transponder advise the driver to bypass the weigh station. Otherwise a red light and audible signal advise the driver to pull into the weigh station for regular processing.
