Use this vehicle pre-start inspection checklist to confirm roadworthiness and safety before operating any vehicle. Capture vehicle information and key specs, then verify critical items including windscreen condition and washer level, oil and brake fluids, lights and indicators, and seatbelts. Ensure required equipment is on board such as a jack and wheel brace, fire extinguisher, and first aid kit. Check tyre condition and pressure, note bodywork damage, and keep the cabin, fridge, and exterior clean on the recommended schedule. Maintain at least three quarters fuel, record crate counts if applicable, add actions for defects, attach photos and notes, obtain a digital signature, and export reports as PDF, Word, Excel, or web link.
