Consistent checks
Define the items appropriate for the vehicle and operation so inspections are repeatable rather than improvised.
Inspection guide
An inspection is only useful if defects stay visible until somebody resolves them.
The strongest inspection workflow connects the driver or inspector, the vehicle, the defect, the repair decision, and the final resolution in one traceable record.
Clear defects
Describe what was observed, when it was observed, which vehicle was involved, and whether operation is affected.
Closed-loop resolution
Keep open defects visible through review, repair, deferral where appropriate, and documented resolution.
Regulatory requirements vary by vehicle and operation. FleetTrestle can support recordkeeping and workflow, but the operator remains responsible for determining and following the rules that apply to its fleet.
