New laws prompt more vehicles to get DOT inspections

The laws have become more stringent recently, requiring additional commercial motor vehicles to obtain annual safety inspections. Combined vehicle and trailer weight, the type of material being transported, the number of passengers the vehicle is designed to carry, and interstate vs. intrastate are a few of the many factors taken into account.
Law enforcement has the authority to conduct random roadside checks, so having an up-to-date DOT inspection can save you from a ticket or vehicle lockdown.
Mid-County Auto, Truck and Tire Center has three certified DOT inspectors who are happy to help with
