With CVSA’s International Roadcheck around the corner, thousands of inspectors will be out in force, and if you’re not ready, your truck could be the one parked roadside with an out-of-service sticker. This guide breaks down what a Level 1 inspection really involves.

It’s one thing to hear air leakes ; wheels blocked; parking brakes released. But I just caught leaking air chamber ; for application side of chamber.via service brakes applied. (you can only catch via service brakes appled; by pushing on brake pedal). Would be OOS item. Two other items they’ve found on us: leaking wheel seals; and air hoses touching each other. Both are illegal.

Anyone from FW determine: how much more do spot rates go up during these blitz’s? They do go up; I’d say 15%. James Bauman dba Kirplopus MC 895097.iMO smart strategy to have compliant truck; and intentionally operate thru these check days.

I’m back to thinking you’re a plant. C’mon James, you’re better than that.

What would it matter? Why throw garbage into chat like that? I’m not a bot. Perhaps the bot is you.
