What should you recheck during stops on a trip, in addition to how the vehicle feels?
- A.Tires, wheels, brakes, lights, and cargo securement
- B.Only the fuel level and engine temperature
- C.The radio presets and seat position
- D.Nothing, the pre-trip inspection covers the whole trip
Correct answer
A. Tires, wheels, brakes, lights, and cargo securement
Why
Problems often show up only after miles of heat and vibration, so en route checks of tires, wheels, brakes, and cargo are part of the job. A walk-around at fuel and rest stops catches leaks, hot hubs, and shifting loads early.
