Tire tread warning =24 Csa points?

It is the pattern of repeat mistakes they look for. One flat spotted tire, not out of serevice, stop sweating it.

 

Points for warnings is crap. Giving points for actual violations fine but warnings. Get real.

And for the Billy big rigers that claim they'd never miss this and craw under the trailer to do pre trips are full of it.

 

TLea is right. You have no points. Your company may be trying to make you aware that equipment violations hurt their score but you have none. In fact unless they are in serious trouble intheir maintenance basic it shouldn't move their ranking either.


Any potential employer will see you had an inspection with a Non OOS warning. No big deal unless it becomes a pattern.They will see any inspection you have for the last three years so if your next one is clean.......



Normally when you do a walk around get abck in and roll a couple feet. Some times you'll see it then. Also listen to your tires at speed every once in a while. You'll hear flat spots if they are very bad.



Long story short no worries.

 

I got a Level 2 inspection in Arizona and the officer brought my attention to one of my trailer tires that had a flatspot but didn't note it in the inspection.

 

Nope.

I never have.

At least, I haven't except to the nearest scale.

 

then that means you did, doesn't it? had you crossed a scale before you got legal, then you also would be in the same boat. i bet it's hard to take a bath when you walk on water.

 

YES THEY WILL AFFECT YOU!!!

MANY companies are DENYING employment due to your CSA score!!!

You will have the pleasure of keeping those points for 3 years now. Each year, you will lose 8 points, till the third year, they will be the original 8.

 

NOOOooooo.

YOU AND TLea are wrong!

He was told by the company he HAS CSA POINTS, that means he got nailed too. He had to sign the inspection report, in there, would have been the driver's inspection as well.

He's nailed.

I believe the company would have told him if he wasn't.

 

The PSP detailed report lists every accident reported to FMCSA for 5 years and every roadside back 3 years.

It does NOT list the 'points' from the inspection.

For each inspection it shows: Date, DOT #, Carrier Name, Driver Name, Driver License #. CDL State, Date of Birth, Report State, Report Number, HM Insp? Y/N, Insp Level and the total Number of Violations found.

I'm reading this off one report I have for one of my newest guys.
