The Driver Vehicle Inspection Report (DVIR) is a central part of fleet management mandated legally under the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). Drivers are required to complete DVIRs before and after each trip to identify if their vehicle is in a safe working condition or if there is an issue that needs to be fixed and reported. The DVIR is used as the basis to make significant decisions which include the trip status, vehicle and driver’s readiness to go on the road, and rejections due to ongoing mechanical issues or lack of maintenance.

With federal regulations and safety paramount, DVIRs are vital to fleet maintenance. When drivers use their pre-trip and post-trip inspections from their electronic driver vehicle inspection reports (e-DVIR, with Driver Vehicle Inspection Report) to report their findings before a vehicle enters service, this action can prevent an accident, costly downtime, and the hefty fines associated with non-compliance. The reporting also ensures an un-muddled record of ongoing vehicle maintenance and inspections.

TruckX’s DVIR automation system enables fleets to streamline the DVIR process by creating, completing, and retaining a thorough digital record of inspections with minimal paperwork. Our DVIR tools offer a double advantage – reported defects that occur during a DVIR can be monitored live, allowing for immediate management action, and the log of the entire process is stored digitally, in the cloud, so the results can be accessed at any time. We offer a comprehensive set of solutions that move fleets toward greater automation and efficiency.
