On August 10, 2020<\/a>, the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) announced that their International Roadcheck is rescheduled<\/a>. The new date announced was September 9 – 11, 2020. Since this date is quickly approaching, it is critical for all commercial vehicles on the road to reassess and ensure compliance with federal regulations.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As many fleets are just beginning to return to near normal productivity or are just returning to the road after pausing work after the COVID-19 pandemic, compliance must remain a priority.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

What Is The CVSA\u2019s International Roadcheck<\/b><\/h2>\n

The<\/span> International Roadcheck<\/span><\/a> is a thorough inspection of commercial vehicles on the road. These inspections are conducted over a 72-hour high-volume period and enforcement is conducted by inspectors in Canada, Mexico and the U.S. Inspections will be conducted in a variety of settings \u2013 in mobile patrols, at fixed locations and weight, or at inspection stations.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What Will Be Checked?\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

In Canada, law enforcement personnel will conduct motor vehicle and driver inspections. They will leverage standard out-of-service criteria in North America, the National Safe Code and other provincial or territorial regulations to note violations to vehicle or driver compliance.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the U.S. inspections will use Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations in addition to rules and regulations that are applicable to the commercial motor vehicle sector.<\/span><\/p>\n

Similarly, in Mexico inspections will review regulations and standards set by the Mexican government.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is important to note that inspections will review driver <\/span>and<\/b> vehicle compliance. For more information review this note released by the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance<\/a>:<\/span> https:\/\/www.cvsa.org\/news-entry\/2023-rescheduled-roadcheck\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
