DOT annual inspection

my sticker reads : expires 1 year after the below date. I don't know if they're all the same or not but maybe if you read it carefully.

 

Feb 2014 should be good thru Feb 2015, Midnight on Feb 28th its gone, March 1st its past due

 

If you're an owner op, you should keep a copy of the DOT inspection form on you. What is the date on it or the sticker? If Feb 1 2014, you need to have a new dot before Feb 1, 2015. If Feb 28, you have through Feb 27...

You can buy an inspection form and sticker at most TA's and do your own inspection. If the TA doesn't have it on the shelf, ask the shop guys -- they always have some in the back.

 

The inspection is good for 1 year. if its marked 02/14, it is good until 02/28/15. Grace period depends on the state you get stopped in. When you get it done, keep a paper copy in your permit book. if the marker washes off the sticker, you don't have a valid inspection anymore unless you had the paper report with you.

 

If the inspection was performed on February 1st the previous year it needs to be inspected by January 31the current year. If performed February 20th the previous year it needs to be done by February 19th the current year. February 28th previous, February 27th current.... All based on the actual date of the inspection as listed on the inspection form carried on the truck. (not the month and year of the sticker)

 

I'm pretty sure he got that figured out 3 years ago when he started the thread lol!!

 

If not... he might be that reafer i seen sitting behind the coop the last 2.8 years....

 

hahahahhahhaha
