Motor Carrier Safety
Do you know what to do when you see a truck operating in an unsafe manner or when a rock, rake or mattress falls from a truck into your vehicle’s path? Are you worried about sleepy truck drivers?
The Fairfax County Police Department is staffed by four officers who are responsible for:
- Inspecting and ensuring commercial motor vehicles, and operators, meet all federal and local requirements for licensure and certification.
- Investigating crashes that involve commercial motor vehicles on Fairfax County roadways.
All motor carrier officers also work to train Fairfax County Police patrol officers to be on the lookout for unsafe, or illegal, trucks and operators.
What do I do when I see a commercial vehicle operating in an unsafe manner?
- Report the truck to 703-691-2131.
