International Roadcheck is May 13-15

This annual initiative is a high-visibility, high-volume enforcement event focused on commercial motor vehicle inspections and regulatory compliance across Canada, Mexico, and the United States.

During the 72-hour period, CVSA-certified law enforcement officials will conduct inspections at weigh stations, temporary inspection sites, and through mobile patrols. These inspections are designed to verify compliance with federal, state, provincial, or territorial regulations. The data collected will be analyzed and shared later this summer.

Each year, International Roadcheck highlights a specific focus area. For 2025, the focus areas are:

  • Tractor protection systems

  • Alcohol and controlled substance possession

Controlled substance and alcohol possession/use continue to be serious concerns for carriers, drivers, and the general public. The growing number of drivers listed in the U.S. Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse (DACH) is an alarming trend that threatens the safety of roadways throughout North America.

Throughout Roadcheck, inspectors will perform the North American Standard Level I Inspection—a comprehensive, 37-step procedure that includes a detailed examination of vehicle components as well as a review of driver credentials and documentation.
