\n

The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) has announced this year\u2019s International Roadcheck dates as May 17-19 with a focus on wheel ends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

International Roadcheck is 72-hour high-visibility, high-volume commercial motor vehicle inspection and enforcement initiative. Commercial motor vehicle inspectors in Canada, Mexico and the U.S. will conduct\u00a0<\/span>North American Standard Inspections<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>of commercial motor vehicles and drivers at weigh and inspection stations, on roving patrols, and at temporary inspection sites.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Each year, CVSA focuses on a specific aspect of a roadside inspection. This year, the\u00a0<\/span>focus<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>will be on wheel ends. Wheel end components support the heavy loads carried by commercial motor vehicles, maintain stability and control, and are critical for braking. Violations involving wheel end components historically account for about one quarter of the vehicle out-of-service violations discovered during International Roadcheck, and past International Roadcheck data routinely identified wheel end components as a top 10 vehicle violation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

During International Roadcheck, commercial motor vehicle inspectors examine large trucks and motorcoaches and the driver\u2019s documentation and credentials using CVSA\u2019s North American Standard Inspection Program procedures which are the uniform inspection steps, processes and standards established to ensure consistency in compliance, inspections and enforcement. Using the\u00a0<\/span>North American Standard Out-of-Service Criteria<\/strong><\/a>, also established by CVSA, inspectors identify critical out-of-service violations that if found, require the inspector to restrict the driver or vehicle from travel until those violations or conditions are addressed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Vehicles that successfully pass a North American Standard Level I or Level V Inspection without any critical vehicle inspection item violations may receive a\u00a0<\/span>CVSA decal<\/strong><\/a>. In general, a vehicle with a valid CVSA decal will not be\u00a0<\/span>re-inspected<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>during the three months while the decal is valid. Instead, inspectors will focus their efforts on vehicles without a valid CVSA decal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cWe want every vehicle on our roadways to be in proper working order for the safety of the driver operating that vehicle and everyone traveling on our roadways,\u201d said CVSA President Capt. John Broers with the South Dakota Highway Patrol.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In consideration of COVID-19 and the health and safety of commercial motor vehicle inspectors and drivers, law enforcement personnel will conduct inspections following their departments\u2019 health and safety protocols during International Roadcheck.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

International Roadcheck<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>is a CVSA program with participation by the U.S. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators, Transport Canada, and Mexico\u2019s Ministry of Infrastructure, Communications and Transportation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
