Vehicle is roadworthy — you may proceed. Even with no issues found, the form must still be completed fully and correctly. A blank or incomplete form is not acceptable.
📝 How to Fill In the Form — No Defects
- 1 Truck Registration, Start of Duty, Date, End Tacho Start & Tacho End, and Route Details — all of these boxes MUST be filled in. Do not skip any of them.
- 2 All checked boxes must have some sort of fill — a tick, cross, or initials. Never leave a box completely empty.
- 3 If a piece of equipment is not present on the vehicle — write N/A in that box. Do not leave it blank.
- 4 "Has the defect been rectified?" — write N/A (there is no defect to rectify).
- 5 "Is the vehicle roadworthy?" — answer YES.
- 6 Your name and signature — you MUST print your name and sign the form. An unsigned form is invalid.
Remember: Even when there are no defects, the form is a legal document. Filling it in properly proves you carried out a proper check and takes responsibility for the vehicle at the time of inspection.
