2023 Updates

Key changes contained in the April 1, 2023 edition of CVSA's North American Standard Out of Service Criteria Handbook:

  1. Placing a driver out of service for 24 hours for a drug violation (same as alcohol)
  2. False logs any time in the 8-day window will no longer result in an automatic out-of-service period, and instead will be based how recent the violation was and if it was an attempt to disguise an hours-of-service violation.
  3. Updated information on when connecting rod and sway assembly defects are and are not an out-of-service violation.
  4. Removed having a fuel tank capable of being filled to over 95 percent capacity as an out-of-service violation

NOTE: The 2023 printing of CVSA's North American Standard Out of Service Criteria Handbook contained an error. See letter from CVSA. All handbooks will come with a correction label to apply to the impacted page.
