- C.Stay seated with the engine racing
- D.Walk into traffic to watch the inspection
Correct answer
B. Follow the inspector's instructions, stay clear of traffic, provide the requested documents, and remain professional and factual
Why
Roadside locations are dangerous for everyone on foot, so movement follows the inspector's direction. A calm, documented disagreement through the carrier's data review process protects your record better than a roadside argument.
