Using the inspection record

Record observations for one vehicle and date. For example, mark a light as Fail and describe which light needs attention in the notes.

Leave unreviewed items as Not checked. N/A means the item does not apply. Review the entries before printing; the form does not inspect a vehicle or establish regulatory compliance.
