A method of detecting degradation of an optical target on a trailer. The method includes generating a first set of data corresponding to optical characteristics of an optical target on a trailer. The method also includes generating a second set of data corresponding to optical characteristics of an optical target on a trailer after generating the first set of data. The method further includes providing an alert if differences between the first and second sets of data exceed predefined criteria indicating that the target has degraded. The predefined criteria may comprise fading or other suitable optical characteristics of the target.
