Not only these factors but also the check procedures of parts of truck equipment are included as well:
- Brake systems including (Jake brake)
- Cargo securement
- Coupling devices
- Truck Tires
- Dry Van
- Trailer Bodies
- Truck Wheels
- Windshield Wipers
- Fuel Systems
- Lights
The above-mentioned equipment needs to be in a functioning order not only for the cargo securement but for the driver’s safety as well.
During the inspection process, the truck drivers need to obey the requirements in order to perform well on the inspection.
Continually, the inspectors will also check the drugs and alcohol influence while driving. However, it takes time to build truck driving experience and become a professional driver.
