This year’s CVSA Brake Safety Week is scheduled for August 24-30. CVSA-certified inspectors will conduct routine commercial motor vehicle inspections focusing on brake systems and components with an emphasis on brake drums and rotors.

Commercial motor vehicles found with brake-related out-of-service violations, or any other out-of-service violations, will be removed from roadways until those issues are corrected.

That is why TRP Performance® is offering special deals to help you prepare and get ready for inspection.

Check the Brake Safety Week Flyer for 8 tips on how to avoid violations related to brake drums and rotors.
