The Out-of-Service Verification Field Operational Test Project was initiated in 1994. The purpose of the project was to test the feasibility of using sensors and a computerized tracking system to augment the ability of inspectors to monitor and control the status of vehicles that had been placed out of service until the violations were cleared. As such, the system not only required development of new technology for vehicle sensing, but it also required interfacing into an existing inspection computer record system (ASPEN) and a well-developed methodology of inspection that was comfortable for both drivers and inspectors. This report describes the out-of-service verification system that was put in place at the East Boise Port of Entry on Interstate 84 and results of the tests that were conducted on the system.
