The Nuts and Bolts of Wheel Maintenance

摘要

A cracked or broken wheel rim, elongated stud and bolt holes on wheels, and loose or missing wheel fasteners are all potential violations under the driver safety measurement system within the 2010 Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) program. Generally, CSA affects carriers subject to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs), carriers transporting passengers or cargo in interstate commerce, and carriers of hazardous materials in intrastate commerce. It may also impact carriers whose states require that they obtain a U.S. Department of Transportation number.
