CVSA has a new out-of-service condition effective April 1 for truckers and motor carriers disobeying federal driving limits by tampering with electronic logging devices.

CVSA roadside inspectors will review a driver’s record of duty status as in past years but with specific scrutiny to determine if ELD tampering has occurred.

During the three-day event, which takes place across Canada, Mexico and the United States, law enforcement personnel will conduct inspections of commercial motor vehicles and drivers.

During International Roadcheck on May 14-16, CVSA-certified inspectors will focus on tractor protection systems — and drivers who may be under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
