roadside inspections
Roadside inspections are checks conducted by law enforcement on commercial vehicles, like trucks and buses, while they're on the road. The goal is to ensure safety, compliance with regulations, and to protect both drivers and the public. Inspectors examine the vehicle's condition, including brakes, lights, and tires, as well as the driver’s credentials, such as their license and logbook. If issues are found, the vehicle may be grounded until repairs are made. These inspections help prevent accidents and promote safer transportation.
