🚨 CVSA International Roadcheck 2025 Begins Today! 🚨 

The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) has officially launched its annual International Roadcheck, running from May 13 to May 15, 2025. This 72-hour enforcement blitz is the largest targeted inspection initiative for commercial motor vehicles across North America, with inspectors conducting an average of 15 inspections per minute during this period .  

🔍 2025 Focus Areas: Tires & Hours-of-Service (HOS)

This year’s Roadcheck emphasizes two critical areas: 
• Tires: Inspectors will assess tire condition, tread depth, inflation levels, and overall maintenance. Proper tire care is essential not only for compliance but also for preventing blowouts and improving fuel efficiency . 
• Hours-of-Service (HOS) Compliance: Inspectors will scrutinize drivers’ Records of Duty Status (RODS) for accuracy, ensuring adherence to HOS regulations. This includes checking for electronic logging device (ELD) tampering, improper use of personal conveyance, and other violations . 

✅ Tips to Stay Ahead During Roadcheck

1. Conduct Thorough Pre-Trip Inspections
• Check tire pressure, tread depth, and overall condition. 
• Inspect brakes, lights, and other critical components. 

2. Ensure Accurate and Up-to-Date RODS
• Review logs for completeness and accuracy. 
• Be prepared to present ELD instruction sheets and blank logs if needed. 

3. Verify Driver Credentials
• Ensure all required documents, such as CDL, medical certificates, and insurance, are current and accessible. 

4. Maintain a Clean and Organized Vehicle
• A well-kept truck can make a positive impression during inspections. 

5. Educate and Communicate with Your Team
• Hold safety meetings to discuss inspection procedures and expectations. 
• Encourage open communication regarding any concerns or issues.

Stay safe and compliant on the roads!

Heads Up, Drivers! It’s CVSA Roadcheck Week!

The annual CVSA International Roadcheck is underway — May 13–15, 2025!

This year’s focus: Tires and false records of duty status (RODS)

Inspectors across North America will be conducting Level I inspections at weigh stations, rest areas, and roving patrols. Make sure your vehicle is inspection-ready and your paperwork is in order.

Pro Tip: Do a thorough pre-trip inspection — check brakes, lights, tires, and air systems. Stay safe and compliant out there!
