Having only 2 inspections on the company records and 1 having a light out....doesnt reflect as well on us as I'd like. Is there such a thing as going into an open scale and seeing about a voluntary inspection?
Sounds slightly terrifying and potentially disastrous. But only 5 trucks and a few years into this now stuck at only those 2 on record...not sure what else to do...
Anybody ever volunteered for a DOT inspection?

then you know it's 50/50 from that point on.
i say check things out as best you can first, then decide.
something simple that you can take care of now, and avoid a ticket or OOS later.
then, what are the odds, that say you volunteer for an inspection, then in 3 days you get pulled in for an inspection.>???
i dunno, i do know, i never volunteered, and i ran with some very great equipment most of the times.AlexD13, Tb0n3, TheLoadOut and 2 others Thank this. -

Even if the first guy passes it, the next DOT officer will point out something that failed and there ain't a thing you can do about

I have recieved level 2 and 3 inspections and asked to receive a level 1 instead and was laughed at.
Even at portable scales I have asked for a level 1 and never received one.
I don't think they want to give us anything that may help.roshea, Snailexpress, alds and 5 others Thank this. -
nredfor88, D.Tibbitt, buddyd157 and 1 other person Thank this.

No way, no how, would I ever stick my hands into a bees nest, or a snake den, or anywhere there is no guaranty of a positive outcome.
