Flashcard 15 - Driving Test Flashcard Set for the CDL

Look for anything unusual.

By examining the truck over and over, you will quickly learn what your truck is supposed to look like.

Anything out of the ordinary is a potential cause of concern, such as:

• missing bolts
• bent parts
• obstructions
• foreign objects
• streaks of rust or shiny spots on metal surfaces (which could mean loose bolts)
• puddles on the ground (leaks)
• sprays of liquids
• sounds of leaking air
• frayed wire/hoses
• wires hanging loose
• damage to the truck
