The Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Unit was established in 1997. This unit is responsible for the enforcement of Federal, State and local commercial vehicle laws within the Town of Orangetown.
Members have attended various schools and classes and have learned inspection techniques, weight and dimensional limits, commercial vehicle registration, operator licensing and other techniques regarding the operation of commercial vehicles.
This is a picture of our biggest catch in 1997. 130,000 lbs over weight, 5' over height, 43' over length and operator possessed a forged overweight permit. This stop generated $57,000 in Federal and Local fines. Note the skid boards strapped to the top of the generator. They were to allow utility wires to slide over the machine and not become snagged.
