What is a Commercial Vehicle Inspection Specialist (CVIS)
A CVIS is a member of the commercial unit within our department that oversees commercial vehicle safety. Their duties involve weighing and the inspection of commercial type vehicles, concerning the condition of vehicle components and systems, registration requirements, loading, required equipment, and compliance with the California Vehicle Code and other laws, rules, and regulations governing these vehicles, and performing other related duties. They are assigned to one of the 17 various commercial vehicle enforcement facilities (C.V.E.F.) located throughout California. Commercial Vehicle Inspection Specialists play a vital role in helping to keep California’s roadways safe.
