COMMERCIAL VEHICLE DIMENSION & WEIGHT REGULATIONS (CVDWR) COURSE

Post by Clarence_Nelson »

COURSE CONTENT
The accredited Commercial Vehicle Dimension & Weight Regulations (CVDWR) Course, facilitated by Leduc County provides officers with a comprehensive understanding of overall commercial vehicle enforcement for the purposes of protecting public roadway infrastructure. This 5-day intensive course is designed for law enforcement professionals and is packed with current information pertaining to commercial vehicle configurations, industry terminology and definitions, legislation, weights and dimensions, enforcing road bans and bridge restrictions, and laying charges under provincial laws. Participants should be prepared to receive a significant amount of information, reinforced with practical written worksheets exercises and scenarios. Each lesson builds on previous modules, ending with a final written examination on the final day. Students who achieve 80% or higher on the final exam will receive a certificate. Accredited Training Course Number: A-20231201-0054.

*NOTE:
This course is NOT a legal requirement to enforce commercial vehicle regulations in Alberta, and the certificate provided does not grant any specific authorities of expertise. However, the course is an excellent resource taught by experienced officers to help law enforcement professions conduct investigations and prosecutions within this specific field of traffic enforcement.
