What is a DVIR?
A driver vehicle inspection report (DVIR) is an inspection form that a vehicle operator fills out at the end of a trip to let their fleet manager know of any defects, issues or faults with the vehicle. A thorough DVIR, when used effectively, allows fleets to surface potential issues before they lead to unsafe operating conditions or even vehicle failure.
What should be checked in a pre-trip inspection?
When performing a pre-trip inspection, it's best to have a set checklist that guides the operator on a thorough inspection of the entire vehicle. Your pre-trip inspection checklist should cover general vehicle information (odometer/date/time), interior elements (horn/brakes/documentation), exterior elements (lights/tires/body), and mechanical elements (oil level/battery/odd sounds). By inspecting every element of the vehicle, you're more likely to catch an issue and schedule service before the part fails.
