    Pulling into the scale house yesterday I seen the same Trooper come out that was there during my inspection last week, Red-Lighted me and told me to pull off to the side. I had the inspection sheet in hand when he walked over.
    He said hey I know I got ya last week but I have CSA stickers so hang tight. CSA Stickers ?

    He said its a courtesy sticker by the troopers so when you pull through they know the trucks been through a level 1 inspection already.

    Anyone else heard of this ?

    Cvsa stickers are put in windshield usually in passenger side to indicate a level one was passed withdrawing colours. It's a good thing

    If you notice they cut corners of of them sometimes. By what corner is gone some how tells them what quarter or month maybe the inspection was done.

    Yea you are supposed to get one if you pass a level 1 inspection. The program is administered through the CVSA. It is valid for 3 months. It does not rule out future inspections but it does send a signal to inspectors from a distance that you have been recently inspected and were clean so they might have bigger-fish-to-fry and you may get a pass. If they oberserve something obvious like an improperly secured load all bets are off.

    Exactly what the trooper told me he said if there is something noticeable and could be a violation I can still be inspected. He also said I might run into a DOT officer having a bad day and feels like busting chops
