Pre-Trip Inspection CDL Class B

[@amandagallagher2819]

Update from my last comment- I PASSED!!!! 4-1-2022 (First attempt at everything and passed with flying colors). Thank you so much Joe Baker for taking the time and making this video. I studied for a month straight, watched this video and a few others on backing maneuvers. It also helped that I had a very nice examiner. You definitely want to make sure you say exactly what Joe says (Securely mounted, not cracked bent or broken, no frayed or loose wires, and no abrasions bulges or cuts etc). Remember, even though it may seem easier said than done, remain calm and speak clearly, point and touch the item you are explaining, take some deep breath’s and you will be just fine 👍🏻😊

[@christopherostoyic5079]

In NJ i took my class B test 7-16-18 and the inspector said i would've passed but didnt physically touch everything in the engine that i said so he failed me. Anyone taking the Pre trip touch everything you say I passed on 7-30-18 i touched & named so much things the guy started laughing & said stop touching everything you see. once i got past the pre trip it was easy as hell. My advice is touch everything and stay calm they're on your time not theirs

[@practice4greatness973]

Did you chalk your wheels??? I failed my test because examiner said the truck rolled because the wheels weren't chalked.....

[@reesedipherent8416]

That's crazy I'm from NJ but I'm taking mine in GA now been here 6months

[@v1antbo]

[@CouchToBike]

I asked the guy doing mine if he wanted me to touch everything or just point. He said pointing was fine. He also said i did not have to get under the truck but if I didn’t point at the proper location even if I named it right he would ding me. So my advice is ask what there expectations are.

Alright boys, so i took my test today and passed CDL class B. Took it in a garbage truck, i watched this video and it for sure helped me. The only thing is the guy who gave me the exam was an old dude and he walked away during my inspection of the side of the truck. Literally walked away lmao, so i continued and he came back and stopped me. NO MATTER WHAT, youll be nervous and stumble your words, cant help it. My advice, watch this stay calm and drive. Practice parking too!!!

[@ogphilosopher9471]

Hey I just wanted to say thanks for making this video. I passed my CDL test today with flying colors. The dmv testers don’t make you do the whole inspection especially when you start as detailed as this video. I was told to stop and get in the truck. Good luck to everybody who’s working towards there license, this video certainly helped.

[@AriesQueen0430]

Did they tell you where to start ?

[@CloudsWolf]

Best video I've seen so far. Better than the ofot video. This guy is most likely a double licensed operator. I'm guessing double 3s. Very professional.

[@polifrone5]

Now every time I go to the grocery store the shelves are not cracked bent or broken securely mounted....the milk container is full and within operating range.......sounds redundant but it sure helped me pass my class b hazmat....in Lodi nj. I didn’t touch everything that I mentioned as I turned it into a “lesson” as if I were the instructor teaching a student. I think the examiner like that I spoke in a practical sense and not like a robot mindlessly regurgitating info.

[@NoPaintGarage]

Passed my CDL B with airbrake and manual transmission yesterday . Was a lot easier than I thought, but I also had a really nice and friendly examiner. That makes all the difference

[@Mjk86]

Not sure if you’ll see this, but I’ll be taking mine soon. Do you have any tips?

[@NoPaintGarage]

@@Mjk86 well. The biggest thing that people fail on is the air brake test. So make sure you got that system down pat. Turn key off and back on, fan down to low warning indicator, then continue until Parking brake pops out, restart and idle up to build air pressure until governor cutoff. Do the tug test (parking brake test) then service brake test. Also during the manuverability test, make sure to use all you looks especially during the alley dock backing. Usually you get two looks. If you aren't in the box you fail that part. I took mine in Arkansas. It is different state to state

[@davepbj6276]

Thank you sir, I passed my road test today. This video helped me the whole way. Failed the first time cause I started with the in cab inspection and forgot the air brake test. Passed it my second try. Thank you for the guidance.

Within the first 3 minutes of this video you'll definitely learn: "SECURELY MOUNTED; NOT CRACKED, BENT OR BROKEN" !!

Just came across this video today and to be honest it's one of the best demonstrated test I've come across so far. He went above and beyond and gave more info then needed. He might have left a few things out but if you're serious about becoming a driver you'll take the info giving and add any other important factors needed to pass your skills/performance exam and be successful on your test day.

Also would recommend having three points of contact when entering/exiting the vehicle. Depends on the instructor but I hear about it a lot.

[@user-kl1vy3wo4k]

Take a shot every time he says ,”cracked, bent, or broken.” and you’ll indeed be cracked, bent, and broken.
