A detailed pre start inspection checklist designed for vehicle operators to ensure safety compliance before operation. The form includes essential checks for vehicle components including license plates, speedometer reading, fire extinguisher status, brake functionality, fluid leaks, lighting systems, and tire conditions. For vehicles with trailers, additional checks cover trailer connection, brakes, cargo security, lights, suspension, and tie-downs. The checklist concludes with a fitness for duty confirmation and requires operator signature. This systematic approach helps maintain vehicle safety standards and prevents potential operational issues through regular inspection protocols.
