LAW ENFORCEMENT USE OF CREDENTIALS

At roadside, law enforcement will use the cab

card to determine whether the vehicle is a

properly registered vehicle under both the laws

of that jurisdiction and under the International

Registration Plan

Section 610 contains commentary that gives

some direction on the use of the credential by

roadside enforcement, and gives the

jurisdictions some direction as to what else the

document may or may not contain


What happens if the officer finds the vehicles

not properly registered under the Plan?

If law enforcement determines that a carrier is

improperly registered or not registered at all,

the officer may write a citation for an

improperly registered or unregistered vehicle. In

addition, if found in violation of weight laws,

the carrier may be issued a citation for being

overweight, which in most cases carries a

hefty fine.

•Provide consistent online access for law enforcement to confirm IRP credentials.

•Enhance Jurisdictional and Law Enforcement communications



How does Law Enforcement Access Information?

Most jurisdictions have electronic access to their

information. Some have telephone systems for law

enforcement to verify credentials. In each case, the

jurisdictions are required as part of Section 600 (c) to

have a means by which law enforcement can verify

the validity of that cab card.
