- Bring the form to the vehicle inspector and let them check your car - they will complete the vehicle inspection checklist if you make the trip with your own car. It is required to list the main vehicle characteristics - year, make, and model. Every item listed in the table must be checked: look for deficiencies indicated in the worksheet and examine the car for issues its operator has encountered before. For each item, the inspector needs to check or circle "pass" or "fail" in the column on the right. After the inspection, they will add their name, state the date of inspection and follow-up inspection if necessary, and sign the form - you will add your name and signature as well.
Once the document is filled out, bring it to your supervisor. If you have doubts about certain sections and lines of the form, consult with the supervisor, and complete the form together. The supervisor, in their turn, will put their initials on the first page of the document once you have discussed risks and hazards and decided on the appropriate action to confirm their familiarization with the worksheet. They will answer "yes" to certify the inspection of the vehicle and your insurance coverage as well as the fact that you have a valid driver's license, write down their name and rank, sign and date the worksheet.
