  • • Ifany driver asks for the paperwork while on delivery location then you will be charged $100.
  • • Trailer rent is $1100 as of June 01, 2024.

DVIR: Inspecting the truck before the trip.

  • • Conduct a full pre-trip and post-trip Inspection of every commercial motor vehicle you drive. There must be random inspections on-route.
  • • It is unsafe to drive a vehicle with defects and it is the responsibility of the driver to ensure he/she is operating safe equipment at all times and inform the dispatch of any defects discovered.
  • • You ought to be trained on proper procedures of conducting Pre-Trip & Post-Trip Inspections also on coupling, uncoupling and 5th wheel tug test.
  • • You are responsible for the load you are picking or going to deliver. For instance, if the load has been picked up by one driver and it had some defect which the first driver did not notice, now other driver has to deliver it, he will note the defect in his pre-trip and would inform the officials about it so that he should not be accused of any loss. Here, shipper could be at fault but the first driver did not report it so the driver will be assumed to be guilty for this defect. If the same happens then the first driver would have to pay for the loss.

Vehicle maintenance

  • • It is the driver's responsibility to be sure that the truck is in safe operating order. If there is an issue, you should inform the company's mechanic and get it fixed. It is essential that tires, lights along with brakes are adequately maintained.
  • • It is important to get every minor defect checked and repaired, any failed inspections will lead to adverse consequences to the driver (May be a warning or deductions; depends upon the severity).
  • • Maintenance reports must be provided before 10th of every month, failure to do so may result in ceasing dispatch for a day or two to that particular driver.
  • • Preventive maintenance must be done every 3 months and reports must be provided. We had most of the failed inspections due to vehicle maintenance issues so this has to be adhered strictly.
  • • No excuses would be entertained, there would not be repetitive calls but dispatch would be stopped by the time monthly maintenance reports are not received.

Pacing oneself: The appropriate speed to drive

  • •It is vital that truck drivers drive within the speed limit. Over speeding can lead to accidents.
  • • Drivers must operate their vehicle at speeds that are reasonable and prudent, taking into consideration traffic, weather and road conditions.
  • • When travelling more slowly than the general traffic flow, such as when climbing long hills; four-way flashers are to be used.
  • • Also, kindly avoid road rage. We have got some complaints for the drivers being involved in road rage. We request you to ignore such other drivers on the road and driver safe.
  • • Driving beyond 105 kmph is unacceptable. If any of the drivers gets a speed ticket, it does not only cost you a charge but some company points as well. Therefore, any speeding ticket will lead to a warning or suspension depending upon the intensity of the violation.
  • • It is mandatory to provide us with the proof that your vehicle is locked at 105 km/h.

Emerging Trends: Follow state and country regulations.

  • •We need to know the importance of following any state, federal and country regulations present when it comes to trucks. The driver does not want to be faced with the difficulty of being stopped by the Department of Transportation inspectors and not be following the regulations in place.
  • • Roadside violations may become prominent on the driver's documents for 3-5 years. This can impact your chance of employment in future.
  • • Any Inspection done either passed or failed should be reported to safety on the same day.
  • • Kindly try to keep your vehicle maintained and add defects to your DVIRs if there is any. Failure to report any inspection to the safety could lead ceasing of dispatch for 2 days after reporting.
  • • If the inspection would be Out-of-Service because of vehicle defect or any hours-of-service issue, forbid me but the consequences would be harsh.
  • • You will also receive $100 for every clear inspection (Only if we receive the inspection on time) and also deduction of $100 for each failed one.

Hours of Service Rules

  • • You must ensure that the daily log is always updated and properly recorded to the last change of duty status. It is important to certify the logs at the end of each 24 hour period. I have seen some of us not certifying the logs for more than a week. Kindly start practicing to certify logs every day.
  • • It is mandatory to take 30 minutes of "OFF DUTY" for every 8 hours of on duty and driving times.
  • • Please note that if you are using split sleeper berth in states then the duty time which is 7+ hours must be in sleeper berth and other 2+ hours could be any, sleeper berth or off-duty. It does not count towards Split-sleeper berth if 7+ hours status is in off-duty.
  • • Paper-logs must be dropped bi-weekly. Fill shipping details properly on the log and fuel-marks must be accurate.
  • • Company allows you to use Personal conveyance for 45 minutes in a single day that too in a thorough need.
  • • Personal conveyance or yard move will be disabled for the person who will misuse it.

Distracted Driving

  • • Using your cell phone to talk, text, check maps or choose a playlist while you are behind the wheels, all count as distracted driving- it can put you and others at risk.
  • • Activities like eating, reading, smoking, grooming, typing a destination into GPS are not allowed while driving. You must stop at a safe spot to do any of the distracting activities or get everything organized while pre-trip inspection.
  • • A hands-free device can be used limitedly.
  • • A mounted device (e.g. phone, GPS) can be used as long as it is secure and not moving around while driving.
