Scarey thought cause she introduced her self as a instructor and me as a rookie driver picked several of key components she missed as far as making sure your skid plate on 5th wheel is properly greased 🤦♂️ and that's only 1 of many she missed . Hopefully I get a more educated instructor when I go 🤷
There's more to the pre-trip inspection other than the exam. Should be done before every trip. This maybe how Prime would like their drivers to complete their pre-trip inspection.
Something to think about, I am a former safety director of heavy haul coal trucking company. We had a fatality accident from a driver who used a hammer on a tire that ruptured and killed him instantly. PLEASE DO NOT KICK OR BEAT A TIRE, THEY WILL BLOW. Think about this if that cap was loosened on the last trip and you hit it at the right spot and it flies out or off you are the weakest link in that chain. If it tears up trailers then what is it going to do to you.
Would it be helpful to have a pre trip inspection sheet with tick boxes good bad or needs fixing before driving? Also this would ensure the drivers checked everything proving it with paperwork… daily inspection log sheet 👍✅👌
You gotta say with every part for Schneider, properly mounted no signs of damage, no cracks for like every part and you have to verbally say it, we need a legit pre trip from one of our instructors here at Charlotte cause I need to study and that’s how they do it anyways lol
Doing a pre-trip (and post-trip) hundreds of miles away from you home, and not being paid to do it. "Working" 70 hours a week, and never receiving overtime pay for the 30 hours of overtime- EVERY WEEK. Sounds like a great career
I failed out of CDL school because I could not remember all the CDL test wording by memory it was too much for me,even though I'm could do it with the paper ...I'm gonna have to go to another school and try again
@Kenneth Snyder I'm aware of that. I've had my CDL for nearly a decade. I was just stating how long the difference to make a video wasa year ago is all.
Hi Daniel, yes, we do have a "cheat sheet" of sorts that you can refer to when doing pre-trip inspections. And yes, the sheet has all of the information Dana talked about in the video!
I am walking to the park of may looking for at this truck for any maybe’s. Looks good, no crashes, I mean cracks or dmg and no puddles that would indicate a leak that would have to be investigated further
Glad you liked the video! Due to keeping the video to 30 minutes, we couldn't show the specifics of each and every part. We will look into creating an air break test video in the future. Thanks for the feedback.
@Dennis Leavitt cool, a DMV isn't going to employ you. And when you're employed you do it the companies way, not the DMVs way. Each company and state have different rulings on how things are taught and done. Not trying to argue. Just saying. I'm presently a truck driver and things are not clear cut and easy if u intend to remain legal and compliant with dot.
@@laxus7172 dot is there for you. Why not find company that complies with dot? dmv manual has really cool stuff in there and pretty vital stuff too. like you do not weld your rims. In the end of the day, if something happens company says - but look, he signed that everything was ok, its not our fault. Good luck.
@@okie1630 I mean, when you're working for a company you also have to abide by their standards and slo check whatever they want you to. Moreover, dot guidelines do vary per state most of the time and so it's better to be prepared for everything. Also dot doesn't even know what they really require so it can get confusing for new drivers.
Forgot about the air brake test and pump down to make sure that both tractor and Tlr parking brake release pop out at 25 psi. Forgot to tell us about illegal stickers on the windshield
Great video but what happened to the break test? That’s the most important when it comes to passing the test. And honestly the one most people fail almost immediately.

Great job! Only thing I would have added was once inside the cab I would verify that my coffee was full. That's the most important step.
Great tip! Driver has to stay fueled also!
Lol
No abrasions bulges or cuts, coffee is filled to the proper level, not leaking

15:15 she forgot to inspect the glad hand seals... make sure they have no cracks or not dry rotted 😉 7 year ex schneider driver here

You go way above and beyond what is required to pass the CDL. Allot of these things aren't required for the exam. But still I guess it's good to know.

Wow I have never heard of this before but you did mention heavy haul. Most of us watching this will never drive that type of weight around
Just wait till they blow out.
If you have a tire that ruptured from a hammer hitting it, it probably needed replaced years ago.
Thank you

Great idea just to make sure nothing is missed
One of the best places to work
Thank you!
Need to check that the ABS light on the trailer comes on and goes off when the ignition is turned on too.
Loved this ! I go to take my test on Monday this helped ALOT ❤
U do a good job dana!!! See u moving on up in company !!! Doing good here keep up good work

AWESOME DEMONSTRATION 😊
Did your mike a video on tanker yet?
Are you still with Schneider? I may have some questions. This is a great video to help drivers.
Oh she is still there! At least she was like three years ago
The tire pressure can vary by 30 psi and the hammer test wouldn't show it
I use my steel boot test for tires
Good pre-trip, the only thing I saw that she might have mentioned is the ABS light on the trailer.
Thank you!
if learned something from this vid but the comments showed flaws in her whole video
how would there be exaust leaks on the turbo charger if your engine is not even fired up?
Good video

@@spillingtees313 yep

It's crazy how a pre-trip inspection take 30 minutes when you are talking everything through, but only takes roughly 10-15 minutes in reality.
Talking about it takes more time
@Kenneth Snyder I'm aware of that. I've had my CDL for nearly a decade. I was just stating how long the difference to make a video wasa year ago is all.
Does anyone know if they offer free or discounted cigarettes during training?
I wonder what kind of damage 120psi does when you hit a tire in the wrong spot
I was told that Schneider gives you a cheat sheet for your pretrial and does the cheat sheet give you all of the information that she is giving
Hi Daniel, yes, we do have a "cheat sheet" of sorts that you can refer to when doing pre-trip inspections. And yes, the sheet has all of the information Dana talked about in the video!
Damn that's alot to remember, she scared me.i wanna be a driver not a mechanic.
There’s no cheat sheets. You are allowed to use a pre plan inspection form as you check everything that is on the sheet
@@kennethsnyder9236good enough to call a cheat sheet, because all them parts and names can be a headache
Doesn't the pre-trip begin with a truck overview and then opening the engine compartment? What am I missing?
I am walking to the park of may looking for at this truck for any maybe’s. Looks good, no crashes, I mean cracks or dmg and no puddles that would indicate a leak that would have to be investigated further
Great job!!!
Did she already mention checking your IFTA and Registration?
Do they DD-13 Detroit diesel engines
Dd-15
lol 😝 mine is a 17
How about checking your registration paperwork on the truck?
She did that
She did at the 28 minute mark
She mentioned that when she spoke about the permit book
Great video.... but, why would you NOT show the air break test
Glad you liked the video! Due to keeping the video to 30 minutes, we couldn't show the specifics of each and every part. We will look into creating an air break test video in the future. Thanks for the feedback.
Didnt inspect the landing gear
Great job. Thank you. 😍
Trailer sliding pins?
Good video, but better lighting would have helped.
Thanks for watching it!
As part of incab inspection, why didn’t you inspect the seat belt, seat and mirrors?
When u drain ur fuel filter, do u drain all of it or do u leave some of it in there?
It's interesting no one has answered this question 🤔
Leave some fuel in there , make sure you don't get any air in the filter by draining it JUST A LITTLE, doesn't take much
I'm watching this so I can pass on boarding at walmart lol
Haha same.
Same here
Yes
yea I'm doing the same thing when I start February 22
Saaaame. Feel like a student driver all over again 🤦♂️
Hey what about tanker pre trip inspection? Can your mike a video on that. Tanker are different with dry van trailer.
Hi Isaiah. The Tanker pre-trip inspection would differ. Thanks for the great idea. This is something we will look into.
Hi Schneider did you guys make that pre-trip test for tanker.?
I'm 10 minutes in and she has added about 30 things that I do not see on other pre-trip inspection videos..
Certain companies require more or less things to be covered for a pre trip.
@Dennis Leavitt cool, a DMV isn't going to employ you. And when you're employed you do it the companies way, not the DMVs way. Each company and state have different rulings on how things are taught and done.

Isn't tire tread 2/32
Only on drive tires. Steer tires 4/32
That's the non steering axle right, Kenneth?
You missed identified the cross members
someone told me Schneider National was busted by DOT and forced to stop training . is this true as i have a buddy that wanted to start there .
Not to my knowledge I start in two week s
How much the cpm for the inexperienced drivers?
It depends on the specific driving position. Learn more about new driver pay by reading our quick pay guide: sni.jobs/PayGuideYT
26 cpm. Some experience 31 cpm. Top out at 48 cpm. No thanks. But Schneider has the best training program
Great video but what happened to the break test? That’s the most important when it comes to passing the test. And honestly the one most people fail almost immediately.
Kinda usless if you can't see the parts under the hood.
No wonder why people fail the pre trip, everyone does it different, the order be off, the verbiage be off as well
A lot more than the Prime inc pretrip
Drivers are not mechanics.
No but you should have basic understanding of safety rules and regulations.
@@angelgjr1999 That’s not mechanics.
@@jeffrey3498lol😂 that's actually a fact 😅
Using a Hammer on a tire, is crazy stupid. !!!! Especially one with a claw.
