Roadside inspections: auto transporters near San Anselmo
10 of the 21 auto transporters listed here had at least one roadside inspection in the 24 months to September 13, 2026, 23 inspections in all.

Drivers were put out of service in 3 of 23 driver inspections (13.0%, against 10.3%). With fewer than 30 vehicle inspections, a single out-of-service order moves that rate by several points, so treat it as a small sample. None has an acute or critical violation from an FMCSA investigation in the past 12 months.

Pickup in San Anselmo and checking the carrier
A loaded car hauler is about 75 feet long, so on narrow San Anselmo streets the driver may ask to meet at a wide lot; agree the spot when you book. If the quote comes from a broker, ask which carrier's truck will come and open that USDOT number before pickup. Preparing the car and how car shipping is priced cover the rest.

Usually as close as a 75-foot rig can legally and physically get. On narrow residential streets, in HOAs that bar commercial trucks, or where overhead lines are low, the driver will ask to meet at a wide lot nearby. Agree the meeting point when you book, not when the truck is idling.
