Show me a driver who does a pre-trip in less than 15mins., and I'll show you a driver who should'nt be driving a big truck; sad part is, there are all too many of them out there. I don't care how fast you move, less than 15mins. is not enough time to do a thorough pre=trip, and nothing less than a thorough pre-trip should be considered to be acceptable!!
7.5 mins. is nothing more than a sloppy pre-trip; not to mention an open invitation to get busted behind a chicken house!! :evil:
REV and Useless I have to wonder if it only take 7.5 minutes to do a inspection why does it take D.O.T. over 1/2 hour to do them? I'd think they could do them faster since the do hundreds all the time.
Do you think it has something to do with doing a complete inspection? Not a half ass inspection Dawn seems to think a driver should do.

Nah - couldn't be. :wink:
After all, Dawn says that you can do one in less than 15 minutes, so we should all TRUST HER. :lol: |
