Prepare for CVSA Inspections: Key 2025 Enforcement Dates Announced

Mark your calendars: The CVSA has announced the dates for its significant commercial vehicle enforcement efforts in 2025.

International Roadcheck is set for May 13-15.
Operation Safe Driver Week will occur July 13-19.
Brake Safety Week is scheduled for August 24-30.
There will also be an unannounced one-day brake safety initiative sometime during the year.

During these periods, law enforcement will carry out inspections with different focuses, including brake systems and general compliance.

Why it matters: These efforts are designed to spot and correct violations to keep our roads safer for everyone.

What they’re saying: “Brake-related violations are the most common issues causing out-of-service orders," the CVSA highlighted.

Truckers should prepare for these dates to ensure compliance and avoid disruptions to their routes.
