An inspection occurs when a Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program (MCSAP) inspector conducts an examination on individual commercial motor vehicles and drivers to determine if they are safe to operate by determining if they are in violation of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) and Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR). Serious violations result in driver or vehicle OOS orders, which must be corrected before the affected driver or vehicle can return to service. Drivers that ignore existing OOS orders (returning to service without taking the proper corrective action) are cited for violating an OOS order. Moving violations also may be recorded in conjunction with an inspection.
