Learn Proper Pre-Trip Inspection From Us – Save Yourself From Breakdowns and Tickets!

One of the most important skills every truck driver must master is the pre-trip inspection. At our Houston-based CDL school, we’ll teach you how to properly inspect your truck and trailer before every trip the right way, not just to pass the test, but to stay safe on the road.

Why Pre-Trip Inspections Matter

Skipping or rushing your inspection can cost you time, money, and your license. A missed issue could lead to:

  • Breakdowns in the middle of your route

  • DOT citations and fines

  • CSA score damage

  • Failed roadside inspections

  • Even accidents caused by equipment failure
