Roadcheck inspection 2023 is a 72-hour inspection and enforcement event that will take place from May 16 to May 18 across Canada, Mexico and the U.S. The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) has announced that this year's focus will be on anti-lock braking systems (ABS), Driver safety compliance and cargo securement . These are tree critical aspects of vehicle safety that can prevent collisions and hazards on the road.

During Roadcheck 2023, CVSA-certified inspectors will conduct roadside inspections of commercial motor vehicles and drivers at various locations. They will check for any violations of the North American Standard Inspection Program, which covers both driver and vehicle safety compliance.


Driver safety compliance includes verifying the driver's following documents like:


· Operating credentials. (CDL, MVR, MEDICAL CERTIFICATED)

· Hours-of-service documentation.

· Drug test Result.

· Driver qualification file

· Drug and alcohol program certificate

· Status in the drug and alcohol clearinghouse. (CLEARINGHOUSE QUERYS)

· Seat belt usage, and signs of impairment or fatigue.


Vehicle safety compliance includes:


· Systems.

· cargo securement.

· coupling devices.

· driveline/driveshaft components.

· driver's seat.

· fuel and exhaust systems.

· Frames.

· lighting devices.

· steering mechanisms.

· Suspensions.

· Tires.

· Wheels.

· Rims.

· hubs and windshield wipers.

· Inspections of passenger-carrying vehicles will also include emergency exits, seating, and electrical cables and systems in the engine and battery compartments.


If inspectors find any critical vehicle inspection item violations, they will place the vehicle out of service until the problems are fixed. This means that the vehicle cannot be operated until it meets the safety standards . On the other hand, if a vehicle passes a Level I or Level V Inspection without any violations, it will receive a CVSA decal that is valid for three months. Vehicles with a valid CVSA decal are usually exempt from further inspections during that period.


Roadcheck 2023 is an opportunity for drivers and motor carriers to demonstrate their commitment to safety and compliance. It is also a chance for them to learn more about the importance of ABS and cargo securement in preventing crashes and injuries. By following the regulations and best practices, drivers and motor carriers can ensure a safe and successful Roadcheck 2023.


Roadcheck 2023 is just two months away, now is the time to prepare and ensure that your vehicles and drivers are violation-free and operating compliantly.
