Frequently Asked Questions

What types of trucks does this pre trip inspection work for?

This pre trip inspection checklist can really work for any type of truck. The core parts of the template overlap with almost any truck (covering brakes, hoses, fluids, mirrirs, windshield, fuel tank etc.), and any specific aspects of your trucks or commercial vehicles can be added to the template by simply editing the template.

How can truck drivers access and fill out this inspection form?

The template itself can be downloaded as a PDF form which means the checklist can be done on paper, but the best way to use this template is to use it in its primary digital format. The template was designed to be accessed and filled out via mobile or tablet by truckers who are out in the field, meaning they can walk around the truck in real-time and perform their checks, attach photos, flag faults etc. This way, it's easier for the truck drivers, and the company or receiver of these records gets them instantly and electronically vs. waiting for paper forms to be submitted.

Does this template help with pre trip compliance?

Absolutely - a pre trip inspection checklist for trucks like this really tightens up both asset and safety compliance. As long as your truck drivers are completing this pre inspection checklist properly and you are storing those records, you will be compliant.

What if my truck drivers are in remote areas with no internet access?

Good question, and is a very common question amongst transport and logistics companies. This template can be opened and completed via mobile or tablet even when offline. Truck drivers can complete the inspection as normal, and then the pre trip record will be uploaded automatically when they get back into internet service at some point on their trip.
