How to use station-level data

  1. Note the station's typical activity hours. Review the latest inspection dates on this page to gauge how often OCEANSIDE is staffed. FMCSA does not publish official hours.
  2. Check what level of inspection typically happens here. The Inspection Level Breakdown shows what mix of CVSA Level I, II, III, IV, V, and VI inspections this site runs. Expect the level-mix at the next visit to look similar.
  3. Pre-trip against common roadside inspection items. Walk-around the tractor and trailer for brakes, lights, tires, coupling, and hours-of-service paperwork before entering a high-activity inspection corridor.
  4. Track your own inspection history at /usdot/{your-USDOT}/inspections/. After every inspection, confirm the report shows up on your USDOT profile within 30 days. Disputes (DataQs) must be filed against your own record, not the station's.

Frequently asked questions about OCEANSIDE

What kind of inspections happen at OCEANSIDE?
OCEANSIDE primarily conducts Level III — Driver Only inspections under CVSA North American Standard procedures. Inspections include credential checks (USDOT, MC docket, insurance), driver fitness review (CDL, medical card, hours-of-service), and a vehicle examination scaled to the inspection level.
How many trucks have been inspected here?
FMCSA records show 8 inspections between Jan 22, 2025 and Feb 10, 2025. The figure counts every roadside inspection report tied to this site, not unique vehicles — a truck inspected twice in one year shows up twice.
What's the out-of-service rate at this station?
OCEANSIDE has too few inspections on file to publish a stable OOS rate. FMCSA's guidance is to wait for ≥100 inspections before reading meaning into the figure.
Where exactly is this station located?
OCEANSIDE is somewhere in California. FMCSA's public file does not name a city or coordinates for this site; the state DOT is the authoritative source for the physical address.
When is this station typically active?
OCEANSIDE doesn't yet have enough monthly history (six months minimum) to publish a reliable activity pattern. FMCSA does not list operating hours directly.
What violations are most commonly cited here?
OCEANSIDE has fewer than 50 violation citations on file — too few to identify a stable pattern. Pre-trip your truck against the full FMCSR Part 392/393/396 checklist regardless of which station you expect to encounter.
Can I avoid this station?
Most weigh stations and inspection sites are positioned on principal Interstate corridors and require all commercial vehicles to enter when staffed. Carriers enrolled in PrePass, Drivewyze, or BestPass with a clean safety record can be electronically pre-cleared and bypass the scale; carriers with poor safety scores are denied bypass and required to pull in. Detouring to avoid an open scale is generally illegal.
How does this station compare to others in California?
OCEANSIDE doesn't yet have a large enough sample (≥100 inspections) to compare against other California stations. The full state ranking is at /stations/CA/.

About FMCSA inspection stations

FMCSA inspection stations — sometimes called weigh stations, scales, or ports of entry — are the physical points where state law-enforcement officers stop commercial motor vehicles to conduct safety inspections, weight checks, and credential verification. The federal Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program (MCSAP) funds the inspector workforce; the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) defines the inspection-level standards (Levels I through VI). Every report becomes part of FMCSA's national inspection file, which is what TruckCodex mirrors here.

A station's "OOS rate" — out-of-service rate — measures the share of inspections that ended with the vehicle, driver, or both placed out of service. A high OOS rate doesn't necessarily mean the inspectors are stricter; more often it reflects the population of carriers passing through the corridor. A low OOS rate often means the station is on a route used by larger, well-maintained fleets running regular pre-trip programs.

TruckCodex is not affiliated with the FMCSA, MCSAP, CVSA, or any state DOT. Every station record on this site is sourced from the public FMCSA inspection file and refreshed daily. We do not publish staffed hours, schedule changes, or upcoming enforcement details — those would not be public to begin with. For the live status of any specific station, contact the operating state's commercial-vehicle enforcement bureau.
