Post-Crash Investigation
If your commercial motor vehicle is involved in a crash, it is very likely that a post-crash inspection will be conducted by a CVSA certified inspector. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration even requires law enforcement jurisdictions to conduct a post-crash inspection if any fatalities occur as a result of the accident.
