What does a roadside inspector examine about the driver vehicle inspection report (DVIR) process?
- A.DVIRs are never part of a roadside inspection
- B.Only the fuel log is reviewed
- C.Inspectors write the DVIR for the driver
- D.Whether required reports are completed, prior safety defects were certified repaired, and the current driver reviewed the last report before driving
Correct answer
D. Whether required reports are completed, prior safety defects were certified repaired, and the current driver reviewed the last report before driving
Why
The paper trail from the last driver to the shop to you is how the system proves a known defect was fixed before the truck rolled again. A missing certification for a safety defect can ground the vehicle at the roadside.
