@ 3 min. The engine oil dipstick is to check engine and transmission? Since when?

I will watch this video over & over again until it’s memorized in my mind it’s the same as the 2023 when actually was renewed less parts to mention

What about the radiator and radiator reservoir cap, the fan the hoses and wires

[@jbvgalvao]

Hi there Jonathan. I would like to know if this new Pre Trip Inspection model is already in effect in the entire State of Kansas? Thanks.

[@jimmygalvan5360]

Automatic fail explain the color of the lights and you have to point out specific hoses

[@sycamore665]

No mention of brake chamber and slark adjustment push rod?

[@creepyencounters-nn9rc]

Nope they took it out

[@creepyencounters-nn9rc]

Only air brake chamber is in there

[@traviscarter1023]

They just changed it again I noticed they changed it in September. So I need to go get another book for pre trip. I just need to go ahead and get my road test done for class B fuck the bullshit

[@willieherrera23]

Great video! I'm actually located in IL and studying for my pre trip inspection and there is a lot more things that they want us to mention. Like the turbo, air intake, alternator, air compressor, water pump, doors, cat walk ans steps and a few more things. It's quite a bit to remember none the less.

[@packersgoat4749]

I believe they do that every where but he says you don’t need 100% and gives you enough info to get full credit

[@CDLDrivingAcademy]

Thanks for watching the video! It's always good to know the extra things they want us to mention during the pre trip inspection. Good luck with your studying!

[@NavyOmen77]

Thank you for this video Driving Academy; Quick side question; when doing the cdl pre trip inspection at a cdl-a training school, what would the average time length be for each student? I guess it prob varies from student to student but in general how long should someone look into doing their pre trip inspection the first few times? (I ask cause a lot of pre trip inspection videos especially old ones; tend to range from a hour to two hours long so just curious since yours the first I've come across that's detailed and is only 15 minutes long (oh and thanks again for doing it, makes it a lot more straightforward when studying this stuff).

[@kingdomkidzwarriorsinc.3589]

I am in the driving academy and I was told it should be no more than 30mins to cover the whole pre trip & in cab inspection. But I guess it might vary from state to state. I would say the reason why all the old videos you have watched are longer is because of the extensive wordplay they are using. It's too long & it shouldn't be. I wish I could upload the pre trip our school gave us. It's short & straight to the point. 🤷

[@king-_-munoz314]

The exam hasn't changed much?

Probably just made it a little easier

The DOT changed the inspection. It's a lot shorter, however there are some e critical components that are completely ignored. Wheel bearing oil hubs Serpentine belts Mud flaps Seat belt How do you know someone didn't mess with your batteries and cables if you didn't remove the cover. The new inspection is a joke Drivers look at everything. Your responsibility.
