PICK UP AN IDEA
Vehicle inspection

Use an inspection sequence and resolve defects

An inspection is a decision process rather than a recital. Work through a repeatable sequence, notice evidence of failure, and decide whether the vehicle is safe to operate. A written report records a problem but does not repair it. A component that passed yesterday may have changed during the last trip.
