CVSA’s International Roadcheck Is Scheduled for May 14-16

During the International Roadcheck, law enforcement personnel certified by CVSA will conduct inspections of commercial motor vehicles and drivers at weigh/inspection stations, temporary sites, and through mobile patrols to ensure adherence to federal, state, provincial, or territorial regulations. The data collected over the 72-hour period of the International Roadcheck will be compiled, analyzed, and the results will be made available during the summer.

Each year, International Roadcheck highlights specific categories of violations. In 2024, the focus areas will be tractor protection systems and alcohol and controlled substance possession.

The issue of controlled substance and alcohol possession/use remains a significant concern for motor carriers, drivers, and the public at large. The increasing number of prohibited drivers listed in the U.S. Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse (DACH) underscores the severity of this issue and poses a threat to all motorists traveling on North American roadways.

Throughout the three days of International Roadcheck, inspectors will conduct their routine North American Standard Level I Inspection, a comprehensive 37-step inspection procedure that covers vehicle components and driver documentation and requirements.
