  • Successful commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers must do all they can to avoid accidents, roadside breakdowns and lost road time due to poor vehicle maintenance. Conducting vehicle inspections helps drivers keep their vehicles in good working order. Routine vehicle inspections enable drivers to discover unsafe conditions before they cause accidents or crashes, find mechanical problems before they lead to costly breakdowns on the road, prevent being placed out of service during a roadside inspection and avoid being subject to infractions and fines that affect productivity and profits.
  • Vehicle Inspections: Tractor Trailers is designed to help properly prepare property-carrying commercial motor vehicle drivers for conducting pre-trip, on-the-road and post-trip inspections on standard CMVs.
