COURSE OVERVIEW

Pre-trip inspections are a vital matter of highway safety. When properly done, they can prevent certain types of accidents caused by vehicles which aren’t in good condition and even save lives–including yours!

Under current regulations, you are required to conduct visual and auditory inspections of certain vehicle components before setting out on the road. Responsibility for management of pre-trip inspections falls to the vehicle owner or operator.

This online driver training course provides instruction on how to perform vehicle inspections that comply with the National Safety Code. While most vehicle inspection courses only list the items that need to be inspected, this course goes further by using professional videos to show truck drivers how to perform required truck inspections. Additionally, this daily trip inspection online course explains how to react to potential vehicle defects that are found during a vehicle inspection.

Understanding and effectively applying the vehicle inspection concepts explained in this online course will help truck drivers keep their vehicle road safe.
