7/3 split question

Do you beat dead horses often?

 

Refuse to admit you're wrong often?

Why not address my question? Do you do your post trip at the beginning of your day? Just answer the question. You're the one who said it, not me.

 

As I said we log a 5 minutes pre-trip and a 45 minutes post. We log both as PTI. My comment to him was referring to the later.

Man. This horse has been beaten up and buried. SMH

 

So now you're saying PTI can be both.

Before you said PTI was "post trip inspection."

So which is it? This horse isn't beaten, you are.

From the FMCSA website. Notice the part in bold. I did not make this section bold, I do believe the FMCSA read this thread and got aggravated so they made it bold just to keep everybody from arguing all night.

 

The deniers will still say that does not exist.

 

Publications get updated. Just got to stay on your toes. A week ago it may not have stated something, then a week later there might be addendum or an explanation to a publication to clarify details. Once the feds put some thing in writing we’re kind of held accountable. If a DOT officer can justify his actions using a publication that the feds posted well, he’s got all the ammo in the world. If you did not document some thing, it never happened. Just my advice to everybody.

 

That's because it doesn't. This is the current wording directly from ecfr...
Just because someone summarizes it wrong doesn't make it somehow right

eCFR :: 49 CFR Part 396 -- Inspection, Repair, and Maintenance
§ 396.13 Driver inspection.
Before driving a motor vehicle, the driver shall:

(a) Be satisfied that the motor vehicle is in safe operating condition;

(b) Review the last driver vehicle inspection report if required by § 396.11(a)(2)(i); and

(c) Sign the report to acknowledge that the driver has reviewed it and that there is a certification that the required repairs have been performed. The signature requirement does not apply to listed defects on a towed unit which is no longer part of the vehicle combination.

 

When talking about the regulations, in the future you might want to post the actual regulation and not someone's faulty summary.
