The Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) uncovered several safety violations during a recent roadside commercial vehicle inspection in Shelby County.
THP detailed the traffic stop in an August 12 social media post:
An MC+ Trooper stopped a CMV in Shelby Co when several safety violations were discovered with one being a suspended driver and one axle was using a Mountain Dew box as a wheel cover allowing a wheel seal to leak oil. The driver and vehicle were promptly placed out of service.
