Brake Safety Week will be August 24-30 this year. Commercial vehicle enforcement will be focusing on the importance of brake safety. This year , according to Heavy Duty Trucking, the focus will be on drums and rotors.
During the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance annual Brake Safety Week, law enforcement personnel in Canada, Mexico and the U.S. will conduct commercial motor vehicle inspections, educate drivers and carriers about the importance of brake safety, and collect and provide inspection and violation data.
Commercial motor vehicles found to have brake-related out-of-service violations, or any other safety related violations will be placed out-of-service until corrected.
Be prepared for Brake Safety Week, make sure your brakes are adjusted and working properly.
