CVSA’s International Roadcheck is set for May 12–14, 2026—a 72-hour blitz with higher inspection volume and low tolerance for “I’ll fix it later.”
This year’s focus: Vehicle-side cargo securement (improper loads risk maneuverability/crashes) and driver-side ELD tampering, falsification, or manipulation.
Why ELDs Will Be Under Heavy Scrutiny
With recent FMCSA revocation of nine ELDs (effective Feb 12, 2026), expect intense ELD scrutiny—non-compliant devices could trigger OOS and violations feeding into CSA (recent events weighted heavily).
Roadcheck Preparation Tips
- Audit your ELD status on FMCSA list—ensure compliant.
- Secure cargo rigorously per regulations.
- Maintain spotless logs, no tampering signs.
- Document pre-trips and compliance fully.
- Prepare for ELD data review during inspections.
One bad Roadcheck can spike scores and hurt stability.
