Reason the reader board flashed at you was that your axle weight/wheelbase length or overall height (left your antenna up?) tripped the weight sensors embedded in the highway or height sensors in overhead pole prior to the scale/POE entrance.

I think I am 12' 2" or so.
I was NOT towing anything, but this gives me a clue. I had just passed a duallie like truck that was towing a 5th wheel. Maybe the signals or lights were for him; and because I was in front, I got flashed (saw the flash anyway) and the bright LED lights saying to get weighed? I would have had a split second to decide to exist if it was in fact for me.
It clearly said "Trucks" Did NOT say anything about RVs, Commercial or Towing.
