Just letting you know this week all across the nation. The DOT will be doing nationwide break checks on all the breaking system. Make sure your ready.

 

I see no problem with my kind of truck.

CVSA begins brake safety week Sunday, Sept. 13

Can delete, just found this elsewhere on the board...

 

Hope they don't check the brakes on my 4 wheeler =P

The way i see it, if you can get stopped at the scale for an inspection you should be free to keep hammerin'. LOL

 

I sure hope so too since there's eight set of brakes on that truck. You see it's a truck and trailer with a 40' trailer behind the power unit. But what you could do is tell me what notch the fifth wheel neede to go in?

 

"The campaign runs through Saturday, Sept. 17 and is part of the alliance's Operation Air Brake program."

umm... anyone els aware that the date is not right?? this year, sat in Sept is the 19th. thursday would be the 17th? so which is it?

 

I may drop & hook to 3 trailers every day. and most of them have problems. There no braking problems that will cause accidents. So i guess i'll spent the entire week pullin trailers into shops all over the U.S. The DOT will have a better chance to write up any other gig the equipment may have.
