How you bypass matters as much as bypassing at all.

Mobile app-based weigh station bypass is expanding fast. It deploys quickly, requires no dedicated hardware, and covers more screening locations. For fleets, that means more chances to avoid unnecessary stops.

But more chances and reliable results aren’t the same thing.

What the benchmark tells us.

PrePass® quantifies what each bypass returns on average: 7 minutes of drive time, ½ gallon of fuel, and $10.65 in avoided costs. Those returns stack up fast. Whether they actually do depends on how reliably your fleet captures them.

Where a single method falls short.

Using only one bypass method means fleets miss chances to skip weigh stations. That’s especially true for fleets investing in better maintenance and driver training to improve their ISS score. The difference between 5 and 7 weekly bypasses per truck adds up to 12 hours, 52 gallons, and $1,108 over a year. Across your fleet, that gap between “sometimes” and “reliably” represents serious value left on the table.

A dual approach protects your returns.

Transponders deliver reliable screening at high-traffic, staffed sites where infrastructure is well-established. Mobile bypass covers a broader footprint and rolls out faster for fleets. Running both helps fleets have more bypass opportunities at every weigh station. ��Fewer gaps mean more of the savings Mile Marker 2026 quantifies actually reach your bottom line.

Here’s how that scales. A 200-truck fleet averaging 7 bypasses per truck per week would recover roughly 8,400 hours and save approximately $775,000 in annual operational costs. Those numbers hold only when capture is reliable. A dual approach helps protect that.

PrePass® Bypass combines mobile (PrePass Mobile App) and transponder-based screening in a single solution, delivering broader coverage and supporting performance at the high-volume sites where the stakes are highest.

Bypass is performance-based.

Bypass eligibility isn’t automatic. FMCSA safety records and ISS scores determine which trucks earn a green light. Mandatory and random inspections remain in effect for all carriers. The system directs enforcement toward higher-risk vehicles while rewarding carriers that maintain strong safety records with fewer operational interruptions.

Protect what the benchmark proposes.��

Mile Marker 2026 suggests a clear savings equation for fleets: per bypass, per truck, per year. The value is real. The only question is whether your bypass approach captures it reliably or lets it escape one missed opportunity at a time.

Mobile bypass opens the door to more opportunities. Adding transponder-based bypass helps make sure you walk through it.
