Roadcheck 2010 Takes Place June 8-10

The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) will be conducting its annual Roadcheck event this June 8-10, 2010. During this 72-hour period in the second week of June, thousands of inspectors will be examining over 70,000 vehicles.

What they find (or don't find) can affect your CSA 2010 Scores. And remember, even violations not resulting in an out-of-service order will be tabulated into the CSA 2010 Safety Measurement System.

Some facts to consider regarding last year's Roadcheck event:

• A record 72,782 inspections were conducted.
• Of the vehicles inspected, 19.6% were placed out of service for mechanical problems (that's about 14,130 vehicles).
• On average, approximately 17 trucks or buses were inspected every minute

Roadcheck 2010 is less than two months away, so start preparing today.
