DVIR

 

What is DVIR?

A commercial truck or bus driver fills out a DVIR at the end of the day to report any defective or potentially dangerous equipment on the vehicle to their employer. After that, before anyone else drives the vehicles, the manufacturer has to fix the flaws or defects.

Truck drivers can roam around and conduct a comprehensive vehicle examination since the digital logs are easily accessible through a portable in-vehicle device with telematics capabilities. After filing a report digitally, fleet managers through TrackoBit can efficiently identify, group, and monitor vehicles in need of routine or emergency maintenance. Additionally, they can examine, publish, and distribute vehicle inspection reports.

If an inspection report shows necessary maintenance, DVIRs can include mechanic notes, updates, and an electronic signature.
