    What companies pay or reward their Professional Drivers for positive or zero defect DoT or roadside inspections.
    And do they pay/reward for different levels of inspection?
    What do they pay or the reward?

    Well, I can tell you that the last outfit I worked for, "rewarded" you by allowing you to continue to work! Get an OOS and get an unpaid three day vacation!

    IFS Trucking in Tilbury ON Canada gives the driver a $20 gift card from Tim Hortons coffee with a clean inspection.
    Small gesture, but I think the recognition is appreciated by the drivers.

    Crete pays $25 for a Level 2 and 3, and $35 for a Level 1. But only if you pass.
    But it is so rare to get DOT'd, but I did pass a Level 3 Monday in Tennessee along I-40

    Epes pays 25 for a level 1 and 50 for a level 2 or 3

    think they're changing their bonus structure some since I've been there but they do pay for clean inspections

    I got 50 the last clean level 2 I got before I left there 6 months
