Be sure to do a real pre-trip: brakes, lights, tires, air leaks, ABS indicators.
Organize your cab paperwork so you can produce what you need fast. We provide you with a permit book for this reason.
Be sure your tablet is charged.
Keep your dashboard clean and clear of any clutter.
Be sure you have your tablet mounted in a fixed position, if you do not, contact Kim or Brie and we'll help get you a mount.
All of this will help you with any inspection.
