When do I need this service?

BIT 90 Day Inspection

The intent of the BIT program is to ensure that every truck terminal throughout the state is inspected by the California Highway Patrol on a regular basis.

Motor carriers who operate under the BIT program are required to have each regulated vehicle inspected within 90 day intervals or sooner to ensure safe operation. Inspections must be documented and inspection reports must be kept for at least two years. There can be fines if the inspections are not performed or are not completed within the 90 day period.

Annual Inspection

All commercial motor vehicles (CMV) that weigh more than 10,000 pounds must undergo annual DOT inspections. A DOT inspection is an inspection conducted by the Department of Transportation to ensure that all the CMV parts and accessories are safe to use, in good condition, and working properly.
