This will be accomplished through an effective and progressive safety inspection and education program provided to commercial vehicle drivers and motor carrier companies.

Our goals are to eliminate all commercial vehicle accidents on state highways and to obtain voluntary compliance from the commercial vehicle industry. To achieve these goals we will effectively regulate and inspect commercial vehicles and review companies safety programs. Out Reach training programs will educate industry owners, safety managers, vehicle drivers and vehicle maintenance personnel in proper safety policies, procedures and practices. By dealing fairly with our customers we serve all drivers on Utah's highways.

We currently have ten permanent Ports of Entry. For more information on Port of Entry locations please see the Subtopics box above.

All commercial motor vehicles are required to stop at Ports of Entry. Permits can be purchased at all Ports of Entry. Carriers are required to have insurance on file with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
