    What is a ca. level 7 inspection? I looked everywhere can't find it but the company truck that I'm in has a level 7 sticker and never heard of one. course it might mean not carrying illegals. idk.

    A level 7 is a Jurisdictional Mandated Commercial Vehicle Inspection. I guess a jurisdiction can create one, but there hasn’t been a CVSA decal for a 7.

    A 7 on a CVSA inspection sticker means it was inspected sometime in 2017. This years will have an 8. Different color for every quarter.
