How can a CMV inspection possibly not be logged as on-duty not driving? (I know lots do it that way, but that isn't my question)

Neither is the recap on the right edge of most paper logs, or inside the front cover. That is for the driver's benefit only.Moving Forward and Grouch Thank this. -

We just came off a Focused Compliance Review (Audit). I asked this very specific question about Pre-trip.
According to the D.O.T auditor, one must pre-trip and flag it on duty/not driving and requires a minimum of 15 minutes. However, post-trip is not applicable. It seems more so that they are looking to see a pre-trip on a log. Of course, it's a plus if a driver does pre-trip and post-trip. The Auditor did though in-fact ding us a minor violation on BOL#'s not being filled in.HalpinUout Thanks this. -

Hey Scalemaster, I have a dumb question. When looking at severity of violation, like when you determine if it's an egregious violation, do you look at a single violation that is greater than 3 hours, of if you had an 11 and 14 that ran 1.5 hours from the same period would that also be an egregious violation, or just two 1.5 hour violations?

There is a whole list of things you are required to check on a PTI, all you have to do is check it all and log the on-duty time you actually spent doing it. If it is less than 15 minutes, you put the time in the remarks (flagging it).double yellow Thanks this.
