NSP Records More than 260 Violations During Surprise Truck Inspection

state-patrol-logoNORFOLK, Neb. (AP) — Authorities have recorded more than 260 violations during surprise truck inspections in Norfolk.

The Nebraska State Patrol says it conducted 80 inspections Wednesday on commercial vehicles that don’t pass through highway checkpoints as part of its regular route.

Authorities say 30 vehicles were not allowed to continue on the road. Those designations can come from a variety of reasons, including bad brakes or tires. Six drivers were not allowed to continue driving because most of them lacked a commercial driver’s license.

The Nebraska State Patrol worked with the Norfolk Police Department on the inspections.
