29th Annual Roadcheck June 7-9, 2016

"The 29th annual International Roadcheck is the largest targeted enforcement program on commercial motor vehicles in the world and is sponsored by The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA). An average of 17 trucks or buses in North America will be checked every minute in the 72-hour period. During the annual three-day event, CVSA-certified inspectors conduct compliance, enforcement and educational initiatives targeted at various elements of motor carrier, vehicle and driver safety."

Since many of our skoolies may resemble a commercial vehicle, any who are out traveling over these dates might have a slightly higher chance for a roadside review.

YEah, man. On something like a bus, tires are a major safety issue for everyone on the road. I felt BAD driving on mine from KY. Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do. Glad I made it and won't be driving on them for any distance on any busy roads till they're replaced.
