Tap Create DVIR.

For HOS tracking, if your current status is Off Duty, you will be prompted to Go On Duty before beginning your DVIR.

Complete the asset details, including vehicle location and identifying information.

Choose the inspection type (Pre-Trip or Post-Trip).

Inspect your vehicle for any defects.

At a minimum, complete all Required fields.
To report an issue or damage to the vehicle, select the applicable defects and enter a description and optional photo. There is a three photo limit for trailers, and a four photo limit for vehicles.
-
If there are unresolved Previous Defects, inspect the defect on the vehicle and select the defect to resolve the issue or leave deselected if the defect remains unresolved.
-
Tap Perform Inspection to document the inspected areas of the vehicle. Tap inspection pass (
) or inspection fail (

For failed inspections, add a comment to provide additional details.

Specify the safety status for your vehicle or trailer (Safe to drive or Unsafe) and tap Next.

To complete the inspection and submit your findings, tap Certify and Submit.
