During a 72-hour period during the first week of June, over 8,500 inspectors will be inspecting over 60,000 vehicles.

That's a little more than 14 vehicles every minute.

Some facts to consider regarding last year's Roadcheck event:

• A record 67,931 inspections were conducted.
• Of the vehicles inspected, 20.8% were placed out of service for mechanical problems (that's about 14,130 vehicles).
• The driver out-of-service rate was 5.3%, mainly for hours of service violations (that's approximately 3600 drivers).

Roadcheck 2009 is only a month away. Start preparing your drivers and their vehicles now.
