The Alliance provides the opportunities and framework for its members to work together to advance its mission to achieve quality, uniformity and consistency in commercial motor vehicle safety and security all across North America, all year long. However, it is the in-person meetings that take place throughout the year that provide the most effective and efficient way for key stakeholders—government officials, enforcement and industry—to collaborate and affect meaningful changes to the overall culture of transportation safety throughout Canada, Mexico and the United States. That’s exactly why attending the CVSA Annual Conference and Exhibition is so important.
The Alliance’s premier annual event includes roll-up-your-sleeve meetings of CVSA’s elected leadership, technical working committees, program committees and task forces. The benefits of the face-to-face interaction are priceless—participants get down to business, discuss, examine, cooperate and make tremendous strides in furthering CVSA’s mission. Please join your colleagues at this year’s most important gathering of the CMV safety and security community. Together, we make a difference and save lives.
