The American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) has just awarded 2003 Associations Advance America Honor Roll recognition to the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) for its Roadcheck program.

In announcing the award, ASAE President Michael Olson said, "Your program is a perfect example of how associations play a vital role in helping the nation adapt to complex and changing times. Contributions such as yours are vital and add real value to society. We commend the work you are doing and encourage you to continue. Activities such as yours truly make America a better place in which to live."
CVSA Executive Director Stephen Campbell said, "Our congratulations and appreciation go out to the thousands of roadside inspectors and others who make the annual Roadcheck a successful part of CVSA's mission to save lives on North America's highways. What they do every day effects everyone's life."
Campbell also said CVSA recognizes its partners -- the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators, Transport Canada, the Secretariat of Communications and Transportation and the Research and Special Programs Administration -- for their participation in Roadcheck.
The 14th annual International Roadcheck, a 72-hour vehicle/driver inspection blitz, was held in June throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Safety inspectors were on the job night and day at inspection sites along major highways. In addition, roving patrols inspected commercial vehicles traveling other highways.
CVSA is the leading commercial vehicle safety enforcement organization in North America. Its members include officials from all U.S. states and territories, the Canadian provinces and territories and Mexico, as well as industry representatives from those countries.
