Roadside Inspections – What to Expect
With the upcoming Roadcheck 2023 (May 16-18), you may want to consider preparing for the process. This year, the primary focus will be ABS and cargo securement (however, no unsafe driver or vehicle condition will be overlooked).

There are multiple (8) levels of roadside inspection. A Level I inspection evaluates both the driver and the vehicle. Each successive level has a more specific target of focus (i.e., VIII which focuses on electronics).
