Doing post and pre-trip inspections on a daily basis helps to ensure that the vehicle is in proper working condition and compliant with safety regulations. By conducting these inspections regularly, any potential issues or violations can be identified and addressed before they become a problem during a Level 1 Inspection. This proactive approach minimizes the risk of violations and increases the chances of passing the inspection successfully. Therefore, the statement is true.

Submit
3. If you are hauling hazardous materials, a Level 1 Inspection will require other guidelines and inspection procedures.

Explanation

If you are hauling hazardous materials, a Level 1 Inspection will require other guidelines and inspection procedures. This is true because Level 1 Inspections are the most comprehensive and thorough inspections conducted by the Department of Transportation (DOT). They involve a detailed examination of both the driver and the vehicle, including the inspection of all required documents, such as permits and licenses, as well as a thorough examination of the vehicle's mechanical components and safety features. When hazardous materials are involved, additional guidelines and procedures are necessary to ensure the safe transportation of these materials.

Submit
4. Hazardous Materials regulations can be found by referring to Title 49, Code F Federal Regulations

Explanation

The explanation for the given correct answer is that Title 49, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) contains the regulations related to hazardous materials. These regulations provide guidelines and requirements for the safe handling, transportation, and storage of hazardous materials. It is important to refer to these regulations to ensure compliance and prevent accidents or incidents involving hazardous materials. Therefore, the statement that hazardous materials regulations can be found by referring to Title 49, Code of Federal Regulations is true.

Submit
5. One thing the DOT inspector will verify is that the truck has a working fire extinguisher.

Explanation

The DOT inspector will verify that the truck has a working fire extinguisher because it is a safety requirement for commercial vehicles. In the event of a fire, having a fire extinguisher readily available can help prevent the situation from escalating and potentially causing harm to the driver, passengers, or other vehicles on the road. It is important for commercial trucks to be equipped with necessary safety measures to ensure the well-being of everyone on the road.

Submit
6. What is one thing that the inspector will look for while inspecting the front tire?

Explanation

During the inspection of the front tire, the inspector will specifically check for broken or missing lugs. Lugs are the metal bolts that secure the tire to the wheel hub, and if any of them are broken or missing, it can pose a safety risk. Therefore, it is crucial for the inspector to ensure that all lugs are intact and in proper condition.

Submit
7. If you have a violation during a Level 1 Inspection, how soon must the documents showing the repairs have been made be sent to the state

Explanation

If a violation occurs during a Level 1 Inspection, the documents showing the repairs must be sent to the state within 15 days. This means that the necessary paperwork should be submitted within two weeks of the inspection to ensure compliance with regulations.

Submit
8. While inspecting the trailer, the sliding tandems can be inspected for proper alignment and position.

Explanation

The statement is true because while inspecting a trailer, it is important to check the sliding tandems for proper alignment and position. The sliding tandems refer to the set of wheels on a trailer that can be adjusted to distribute weight properly. If the tandems are not aligned or positioned correctly, it can lead to stability issues and uneven weight distribution, which can be dangerous while driving. Therefore, inspecting the sliding tandems for proper alignment and position is crucial to ensure the safety and stability of the trailer.

Submit
9.  A DOT inspector does not have the right to break open a sealed load.

Explanation

A DOT inspector does have the right to break open a sealed load if there is reasonable suspicion of a violation or safety concern. This allows them to thoroughly inspect the contents and ensure compliance with regulations.

Submit
10. What should the driver do in the event that the air pressure in the trucks air system falls below 90 PSI

Explanation

In the event that the air pressure in the truck's air system falls below 90 PSI, the driver should notify the inspector as soon as possible. This is important because a low air pressure can affect the braking system of the truck, making it unsafe to drive. By notifying the inspector, they can take appropriate action to address the issue and ensure the truck is safe to operate. Starting the truck to build air pressure or releasing the parking brake may not be sufficient solutions, as they do not address the underlying problem of low air pressure.

Submit
11. If you are hauling hazardous Materials, where are your bill of ladings suppose to be

Explanation

When hauling hazardous materials, it is important to have the bill of ladings within arms length of the driver while buckled in the driver's seat. This is because in case of an emergency or inspection, the driver should be able to easily access and provide the necessary documentation. Keeping the bill of ladings in a safe location in the bunk or not carrying them at all would not meet the regulatory requirements for transporting hazardous materials.

Submit
12. If a truck has an out of service violation, when must the repairs me made?

Explanation

The repairs must be made before the truck is moved because an out of service violation means that the truck is not safe to operate. It is important to address the violation immediately to ensure the safety of the driver, other road users, and the cargo being transported. Therefore, the repairs should be completed before the truck is moved to prevent any potential accidents or further damage.

Submit
13.  Before the DOT inspector does an inspection your truck, where is the air pressure suppose to be for the trucks air system?

Explanation

The air pressure in a truck's air system is supposed to be between 90 and 100 PSI before a DOT inspector does an inspection. This is because maintaining the correct air pressure is crucial for the proper functioning of the braking system in a truck. Adequate air pressure ensures that the brakes are responsive and can effectively stop the vehicle when needed.

Submit
14. If you pass a Level 1 Inspection with no critical item defects, the inspector will issue a decal which will be proof to other inspectors that you have passed a Level 1 Inspection within how many days?

Explanation

If you pass a Level 1 Inspection with no critical item defects, the inspector will issue a decal which will be proof to other inspectors that you have passed a Level 1 Inspection within 90 days. This means that for the next 90 days, other inspectors will not need to conduct another Level 1 Inspection on your vehicle as they can trust the validity of the decal. After 90 days, however, the decal will no longer be considered valid and you may need to undergo another Level 1 Inspection.

Submit
15. During an inspection, the driver is not required to stay in the truck

Explanation

The statement is false because during an inspection, the driver is required to stay in the truck. This is to ensure that the driver is present and able to provide any necessary information or documentation to the inspector. Additionally, staying in the truck allows the driver to address any concerns or questions that may arise during the inspection process.

Submit
16. At what minimum level should your low air warning or buzzer be activated?

Explanation

The low air warning or buzzer should be activated at a minimum level of 55 PSI. This is the point at which the air pressure in the system is considered low enough to require immediate attention and action. Activating the warning at this level ensures that the driver is alerted to the potential danger of low air pressure and can take necessary measures to address the issue before it becomes a safety concern.

Submit
17. If a commercial vehicle has a non out of service violation, when must the repairs be made to the truck?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Before the truck is dispatched for its next load." This means that if a commercial vehicle has a non out of service violation, the repairs must be made before the truck is sent out for its next load. This ensures that the vehicle is in proper working condition and does not pose any safety risks while on the road.
