Arizona troopers removed 110 unsafe vehicles and drivers from the road during a three-day commercial vehicle enforcement detail on Interstate 40 near Flagstaff, according to CDLLife on Oct. 12.

From October 6 to 8, 2026, Arizona Department of Public Safety Highway Patrol troopers partnered with Arizona Department of Transportation officers to conduct an "Arrive Alive Arizona" Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Detail on I-40 near Flagstaff.

During the three-day operation, Arizona authorities reported 263 commercial vehicle inspections, 195 weight checks, and 110 unsafe vehicles and drivers removed from Arizona's roadways. Officers also issued 80 Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance decals to drivers who passed through with all their equipment and logbooks in good order.

"Remember - safety isn't seasonal. Keep your rigs road-ready, your logs accurate, and your focus sharp," AZDPS advised.

The Arrive Alive Arizona campaign launched over the summer of 2026. According to AZDPS, it is a five-year statewide traffic safety campaign focused on reducing fatal and serious injury crashes through community engagement and education, high-visibility enforcement, strategic communications, and partnerships and safety innovation.
