Roadside inspections are the major source of data for CSA, and
violations discovered during them can lead to FMCSA
interventions. Are your drivers ready? If not, they or their
vehicles- could be placed out of service.
Please make sure to review the last driver vehicle inspection
report (DVIR) and sign it (only if defects or deficiencies were
noted by the driver who prepared the DVIR, to acknowledge that
the driver has reviewed it and that there is a certification that the
required repairs have been performed). Also, the driver needs to
perform a pre-trip inspection and be satisfied that the vehicle is
in a safe operating condition. Please check inspection labels,
inspection reports, labels, tags, etc. REMEMBER: complete your
pre-trip inspection report thoroughly!

2. **Safety Tip of the Month**
The hot summer days are near so you need to prepare yourself and stock up in preparation for busy and scorching
days. Truck drivers need to keep the main hazards of summer in mind as they go about their routes. Dehydration
does not only affect runners and bikers and it doesnt matter how well the AC works in your truck if you do not
stay hydrated you run the risk of injuring yourself and other motorists.
Keep in mind that you dont need to drive through a desert to experience dehydration. It can happen while driving
a route along the ocean just as well as anywhere else. So, keep the following in mind:
Water As obvious as it sounds, water is the best source for hydration. Excessive amounts of soda and caffeine-heavy
beverages could actually increase your chances of dehydration. Play it safe and keep water in your truck (or
any vehicle) at all times. If youre ever feeling drowsy or out-of-sorts make sure to drink a little and, when safe, pull
over and rest. Punctuality comes second to safety. So, if you feel dizzy, sluggish, confused or experience heart
palpitations, pull over, get hydrated and dont drive until you can do so safely.
Electrolytes - Electrolytes help your body to maintain hydration. The best source for electrolytes are not drinks,
such as sport or energy drinks. In fact, your body will digest these too quickly and simply expose of the excess
electrolytes. So, keep fruits and vegetables, such as bananas, strawberries and mangoes, in your truck and add
electrolyte-abundant ingredients to your meals, such as cucumbers, artichokes and honey.
Please remember your health and safety this summer and keep yourself hydrated!
