Daniel B.'s Pre-Trip
Topic 23426 | Page 1
No problem! It was well worth the time investment!
When I made it I showed Stan Kasterke. He may still remember me.
Im surprised they made an app for it. They didn't have that when I drove there.

It must be brand new Daniel B. They didn’t have it back in March when I was training. My PSD trainer gave me a google document the I could scroll through on my phone. I too used your pdf & shared it with others. Thanks again!

Wow, Daniel! Rainy directed me to your pre-trip inspection here on Trucking Truth. Just wanted to say you did a fantastic job with all the pictures and everything. It is really helping me here at Prime. And not just me! There are a ton of people in my class who are using your pre-trip, so just wanted to say thank you for putting all that together! Prime gives you an app for pre-trip, but it's nowhere near the one you have done, so a HUGE thank you. It is really helping a lot of people!
Pre-trip Inspection:
A pre-trip inspection is a thorough inspection of the truck completed before driving for the first time each day.
Federal and state laws require that drivers inspect their vehicles. Federal and state inspectors also may inspect your vehicles. If they judge a vehicle to be unsafe, they will put it “out of service” until it is repaired.
