Pre-trip inspection on your phone. DVIR done.
Tap anything that fails. See if it can run, and get the DVIR to sign.
- Lights: photo, note, and a repair ticket to the mechanic
- DVIR: unit truck, 184,220 on the meter, driver signs.
- The mechanic certifies the repair (or that none is needed) before the next trip (396.11(a)(3)).
Free, no sign-up. A starting point: check it against the rule cited.
From the walk-around to the shop
A failed item becomes a repair ticket with the photo and the driver's note, so the mechanic sees it before the truck rolls. The truck shows as out of service in Dozer until the repair is certified.
Machines get the same walk-around with their own list: tracks or tires, hydraulics, guards, the seat belt and the backup alarm.
A starting point, not legal or safety advice. Check it against the regulation cited and your own site.
Every machine's hours, without the clipboard.
Photo the serial plate or drop in your fleet spreadsheet. Dozer tracks hours, idle time and service due. Connect telematics later if you have it.
- Service due by hours, sorted by what's next
- Idle time per machine, per day
- After-hours movement flagged from the cameras
- Fault codes from the CAN port or telematics

Questions crews ask
What is a DVIR?
A driver vehicle inspection report: the written report of the vehicle's condition at the end of the day (49 CFR 396.11). It lists every defect that could affect safety or cause a breakdown.
Do I need a DVIR if nothing is wrong?
Not for property-carrying trucks: since 2014, drivers only file a DVIR when they find a defect. Passenger carriers still do one every day. Many fleets keep a no-defect walk-around anyway.
What does a pre-trip inspection cover?
Brakes and air system, steering, lights and reflectors, tires and wheels, horn, wipers and mirrors, coupling devices and the emergency kit, plus leaks under the vehicle. Before driving, review the last DVIR and confirm any repairs (396.13).
Who signs off a repair?
The mechanic certifies that the defect was repaired or that no repair was needed, and the next driver signs that they've seen it (396.11(a)(3)).
