Your vehicle inspection bundle: 8 templates and training courses

Sign up free to access everything on the SafetyCulture platform. Mobile-ready, fully editable, and built for fleets of any size.

Vehicle pre-start inspection checklist: Complete your daily pre-start before heading out. Quickly log checks for lights, brakes, tyres, fluids, and cab safety to keep the fleet compliant.

Brake inspection checklist: Audit every part of the braking system, from lines to discs. Includes built-in photo capture so your drivers can prove exactly what needs fixing before it becomes a problem.

Tire inspection checklist: Inspect tread, pressure, and alignment on every axle and trailer tyre to prevent blowouts and reduce wear.

Cooling system inspection checklist: Inspect coolant levels, hoses, radiator condition, and thermostat function to prevent overheating and unplanned breakdowns.

Smog checklist: Document emissions-related checks and compliance observations for jurisdictions with vehicle emissions requirements.

Car fluids checklist: Covers engine oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and windscreen washer levels in a single mobile-ready check.

Vehicle awareness training course: Essential safety training for the whole team. Cover blind spots, load awareness, and pedestrian safety to ensure everyone at the depot knows how to move safely.
