Minnesota, New Jersey, and North Carolina require a representative photo of every truck on file with the State in order to be eligible for bypass within their state. If a fleet has more than one truck of the same make and color, only one photo per make and color needs to be provided.
For example, if a fleet has five white Mack trucks and two blue Freightliner trucks, only one photo of a white Mack truck and one photo of a blue Freightliner truck needs to be uploaded and then linked to the correct corresponding truck(s) in the database.
Photo Example:
An eligible photo must be:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
- A side shot of the truck cab
- Color
- Taken in a well-lit area; daytime photos work best
- Taken in landscape (sideways) mode
- Close enough to the truck to minimize extra background
- Saved in the .jpeg file format
- Less than 5 MB in size, with minimum dimensions of 400 pixels wide x 257 pixels high – most cell phone cameras meet this requirement
