We had a driver who did his post-trip and found a defect on the lead trailer. He wrote up the defect in his ELD, selected the “NOT roadworthy” box, then notified the shop about the defect. He was told by the shop to put the trailer to the dock to be emptied and somehow the dock reloaded the trailer and the repair was never made.
The “next driver” hooked the trailer, claimed they did a pre-trip by acknowledging on the ELD that it was done, and proceeded to pull the equipment even though the defect was still showing “NOT roadworthy” in the system!!
On a different note, watched a driver drop out this afternoon and he never made it past the landing gear although he showed a post-trip in the ELD!!
Some guys are just gonna have to learn the hard way!!
