Mass. State Police, Avon Police Net 136 Truck Violations
The Massachusetts State Police Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Section (CVES), known as the Truck Team, teamed up with the Avon Police Department on Wednesday, Nov. 4, to enforce heavy commercial vehicle exclusion restrictions in Avon, the agency said in a release.
Officers weighed 150 commercial vehicles and conducted 45 inspections. They found 136 violations, placed seven vehicles out of service, took 11 drivers out of service and issued $3,785 in fines.
