Mike B. discusses the importance of performing a pre-trip before every trip and the pitfalls and consequences of not doing one. Neglecting to do a pre-trip is unprofessional and un-wise due to the fact that you are a operating a piece of machinery unaware of the safety or mechanical issue of the vehicle. This is not a complete DOT pre-trip inspection and anything that I missed and you can add to the list, feel free to do so. I will never claim to be an all-knowing trucking guru. This BASIC Pre-Trip is meant to keep you out of trouble on the road so adding your own variations to suit yourself is highly encouraged.
