Since 1980, motor carrier safety officials and industry representatives from the United States, Canada, and Mexico have worked together through the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) to develop uniform commercial vehicle inspections. CVSA developed protocols for inspections and the various criteria that warrant declaring vehicles out-of-service. The out-of-service criteria became the backbone of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s safety enforcement program: Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA). As a rule of thumb, an inspector can declare a truck or truck-trailer combination out-of-service when 20% or more of the service brakes don’t work properly.
