Daily walk round

lmp198181:
I’m studying for the transport manager cpc exam……

I came across this……

5 THE SYSTEM AND PROCEDURE
5.1 daily walk round checks and first use inspection

Walkround checks should be carried out by the driver or other responsible person every time before the vehicle is used

A scenario I would potentially use this is with an agency driver with poor English skills and liable to either not write out at ticket or fill out a ticket wrong
I could complete the walkround as the transport manager, fill out the report and leaving the ticket in the truck with possible contact details for myself if needed

Or am I just reading this all wrong and it has to Be the driver of the vehicle before he drives away■■?

Thanks for any insight

Or you could just get a DVSA/ VOSA approved app with language settings so your driver can fill it out in his language.

What if a fault occurs en-route? What if you miss something?

Ultimately, the driver is responsible. Last thing you want is some lazy driver sticking it you.

It’s his truck the moment he accepts the keys and job. Let him VOR

I did several times as agency.
