Physical Object: Commercial Vehicle Check Equipment
CVCE Safety and Security Inspection
Overview
'CVCE Safety and Security Inspection' supports the roadside safety inspection process, including wireless roadside inspections that are conducted remotely. It reads on-board safety data at mainline speeds to rapidly check the vehicle and driver and accesses historical and current safety data after identifying vehicles at mainline speeds or while stopped at the roadside. The capabilities to process safety data and issue pull-in messages or provide warnings to the driver, carrier, and enforcement agencies are also provided. It includes hand held or automatic devices to rapidly inspect the vehicle and driver, including driver logs. Results of screening and summary safety inspection data are stored and maintained.
Since a vehicle may cross jurisdictional boundaries during a trip, it supports the concept of a last clearance event record carried on the vehicle tag. The last clearance event record reflects the results of the roadside verification action. For example, if the vehicle is pulled over in State A and undergoes credential, weight, and safety checks, the results of the clearance process are written to the vehicle s tag. If the vehicle continues the trip and passes a roadside station in State B, the State B station has access to the results of the previous pull-in because it can read the last clearance event record written by the State A roadside station. It associates high-risk cargo with the container/chassis, manifest, carrier, vehicle and driver transporting it.

Requirements
| # | Requirement |
|---|---|
| 01 | The roadside check facility equipment shall receive information concerning commercial vehicles and freight equipment approaching a facility that are being pulled in for safety and security inspections. |
| 02 | The roadside check facility equipment shall receive the safety and security inspection and status information from the commercial vehicle administration center to include information such as safety ratings, inspection summaries, and violation summaries. |
| 03 | The roadside check facility equipment shall provide an interface to inspectors in the field to update safety inspection data including overrides to the pull-in decisions made by the system. |
| 04 | The roadside check facility equipment shall request and input electronic safety data from the commercial vehicle's electronic tag data. This includes identities, driver logs, on-board safety data, safety inspection records, commercial vehicle breach information, as well as freight equipment information. |
| 05 | The roadside check facility equipment shall send a pass/pull-in notification to the commercial vehicle and its driver based on the information received from the vehicle, the administration center, and the inspector. The message may be sent to the on-board equipment in the commercial vehicle or transmitted to the driver using equipment such as dynamic message signs, red-green lights, flashing signs, etc. |
| 06 | The roadside check facility equipment shall receive driver records, accident reports, and citation records from the commercial vehicle administration center to support driver identification and access to driver credentials and history information. |
| 07 | The roadside check facility equipment shall read expected driver identity characteristics (e.g., PIN codes and biometric data) from the commercial vehicle equipment to support safety and security checking. |
| 08 | The roadside safety and security equipment shall read the driver identification card provided by the commercial vehicle driver and support cross-check of the identification data with driver records. |
| 09 | The roadside check facility equipment shall forward results of the roadside safety inspections to the commercial vehicle administration center. |
| 10 | The roadside check facility equipment shall support wireless roadside inspections that are conducted remotely, forwarding data provided by the commercial vehicle via Field-Vehicle communications to the center that performs the safety assessment. |
| 11 | The roadside check facility equipment shall monitor the safety of commercial vehicles that have been remotely disabled, based on mismatched identities, or other situations as directed by commercial vehicle fleet management and the appropriate emergency management center. |
| 12 | The roadside check facility equipment shall request and collect driver hours of service information from service providers. |
| 13 | The roadside check facility equipment shall request and collect driver security credentials information from the credentials registry. |
