Toughest 10 states for brake violations as inspection blitz kicks off

Analysis of nationwide violation data shows the states where truckers might expect next week's brakes inspection event, CVSA's Brake Safety Week, to feature the most intense scrutiny on the truck and trailer's stopping power.

The heavy-haul/oversize trucking niche can be lucrative for owner-operators who know the ins and outs of the business. That doesn't come immediately, nor without significant challenges. Shown here is owner-operator Jason Chamberlain's 1985 Kenworth W900B, powered by a Big Cam Cummins with a 13-speed. He owns two trailers -- a 55-ton, three-axle XL Specialized RGN and a 2017 Benson three-axle, low-pro step deck.
