Or if you get stopped at a weigh station. I started a new job and the truck works ok but it is kind of a piece of junk. Rusty. The handles to grab onto to get into the back of the truck are totally dented in. Is that something I can be faulted for? It's a box truck by the way. Thanks
Things on a truck a cop would look at for a random inspection?

Is the registration legible? Do you have instructions for the electronic logging device, (ELD)?
bzinger and CrappieJunkie Thank this. -
a DOT cop can find anything wrong at any time.
if you value that CDL you just got?
maybe look for jobs that have better equipment?
already sounds to me like that company doesn't really care one way or another about YOUR CDL.
make sure you write up everything during your pre-trip, but remember, once you drive it out the yard, you own it.alds and CrappieJunkie Thank this. -
