Roadside inspections: interstate movers based in Wyoming
8 of the 12 interstate movers listed here had at least one roadside inspection in the 24 months to September 13, 2026, 40 inspections in all. Inspectors put the vehicle out of service in 3 of 22 vehicle inspections (13.6%), below the 19.0% for listed movers nationally. Drivers were put out of service in 10 of 40 driver inspections (25.0%, against 13.0%).
