Laugh if you will! I am a Class B CDL Trainer for school bus in NY. And this Dude is on POINT! "NOT CRACKED, BENT, OR BROKEN" Is what I strive for my trainees to repeat! Some get it, some fail their Road test!
This video was an essential tool in helping me Trifecta on 6.21.21 in Springfield. Just remember the windshield wipers are properly mounted and secured, not cracked bent or broken, operate smoothly and are not worn, torn, or dry rotten. Thank you!!!
@@cwc8979 I am at the terminal here in Pittston PA. I’m nervous because I want this cdl so bad. So much to remember. I’m hoping when they pair me up with a trainer it’ll help me a lot to remember all this shit😩😄
@@cwc8979 once you get cleared to go to orientation and can actually touch the trucks it’s MUCH easier to study and train the pre trip. Still a lot of parts and verbiage to learn but it’s easier once you can actually see and touch the parts
I just passed on the first try!! Watched this video dozens of times till I caught myself waking up saying not cracked bent or broken! This video definitely helped a lot! Thanks!
I appreciate you for filming this pre-trip inspection. With all the knowledge from videos, books and truck driving groups on social media; we shouldn’t fail or make too many mistakes in the trucking industry. It’s too much information out there. Use it! 🗣Not cracked, bent or broken!
Pretty much, and “not missing any hardware”, “no abrasion buldges cuts dryrot or frays” “not leaking “ i passed my test today, it’s really easy just gotta stick to one video and study it for a week, two weeks max! You’ll pass ✅
I’m at prime now i advise y’all to watch them at least 20 or more times on each section. Focus on a section each day instead of watching the video fully through
That was a great video. Thank you for this video. I just got my cdl permit in the mail and going to apply to Prime the end of this month. Definitely trying to learn the pre-trip now.
This is going to help me so much be going go prime for my cdl thank you heather she's a great recruiter and this pretty much the same for the flat bed n trucks right
The pre/post trip inspection is some what the same as nearly 20 years ago. Just watching this video. I see more in depth looking at section and that they're independent of each other.
Just passed my cdl test. First try passed pre trip, and backing, but failed the road test because my trailer tire rubbed a curb on a roundabout. Two days later I passed the road test. On to TNT now. Can't wait to get my own truck.
I didn’t stay at Prime but I can say Prime has the best set up and break down of how to train for the CDL test I’m back in school to get my CDL and I found myself scrambling around for my pre trip inspection cheat sheet and watching this video more than the one the recommended at school I’m kinda starting to regret leaving Prime without at least finishing my TNT training I can see now why Prime was #1 when I was there
This is in my opinion the best full length video of the Prime Pre Trip Inspection that I've seen so far. I'm currently in school at Prime and this video has helped me tremendously. Thanks for sharing. My only question is, during the In Cab inspection, aren't we supposed to test out Windshield Washer and Wipers too? That's the only thing that I noticed might have been missed. And someone told me the Trailer, in the rear does not have Spring Arms. Is this true. Either way, I'm just grateful you've shared this with us. Especially Prime students who, like myself, was having trouble remembering all of the information on the Pre Trip Inspection. God Bless you and yours and be safe out there. Thanks Again.
Two things, when you get in the cab and put your seatbelt on. I thought you had to tell the examiner the same. Next during the air break test you took the seatbelt off (after checking your air horn it disappears) I can do that during the test?
can you tell me about the test that you have to take with Prime Inc. after you finish with your training what kind of written test? do you have to take with Prime Inc. once you're done with your training you have to make a certain grade on it can you tell me more about that?
Ok so when I do my pre trip can I go n take my time like with each part so I can remember I wanna do trucking next year and I’m drilling this in a head of time so I can be perfect to do my test
Quick question I leave for training at prime on Monday, and just wanted to know will I be tested on the full truck or will they pick one portion of the truck for the exam?
After watching this video day & nights for a whole month I passed my test. Im very proud of my self and very great full with God & Mr. Dave. And like a comment that I saw.. My will to live is not cracked, bent or broker
You can, but you have to collect enough points on the outside parts so that when you do your in-cab you’ll have Atleast the minimum points you need to pass. The minimum is 67, and the air-brake test is pass fail (if you don’t do it correctly you will fail).
20:00 how are you performing a tractor and trailer brake check with your wheels chocked? 😅 ofcourse your tractor wouldnt move. Really nice extensive pretrip ❤❤❤
Hello, when doing your engine pretrip, where is your powersteering pump and fuel pump located at? Can you send me a picture of exactly where its located at. I watch your video to help me with getting my cdl

Make sure it is properly mounted too 😂😂
@@canadahangouts-9580 Properly mounted AND secure thank you.
Filled to the manufacturer’s specifications
@@tylerharalam3411 and checked with an air gauge.

Was the pre trip easy to remember once you had training? You know how before you get there you’re nervous about trying to remember everything lol

Yeah that is right bro
🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀
Lmao
I just passed on the first try!! Watched this video dozens of times till I caught myself waking up saying not cracked bent or broken! This video definitely helped a lot! Thanks!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great job! I just passed 3 days ago. I wish the CDL test was informed across all 50 states. Would make these videos even more gold. 🙏🏼
I just passed my Test a couple days ago
I gotta thank you guys for the video I killed it. You guys did a great job I appreciate it 👏🏽
Indiana here
Indiana here too!

🗣Not cracked, bent or broken!
My trainer Keven has me watching this video on repeat and practicing we’re getting that trifecta !!
💯 💪🏽
Im continually watching this on my own. Its great information!! Im in Springfield and wil be on the training path today for the very first time.
Excellent video!! He makes very simple, and showing everything so you can be able to see the parts.
CEO of “Not cracked bent or broken”
Sounds like if you say “not cracked, bent or broken” to everything you’ll pass😃
Yep that’s 💯 correct
Can't forget the ABCs
Don't forget to mention the "not leaking" on anything that contains air or fluid.
And not missing bolts. It's not 100% correct but almost every item includes "cracked bent or broken"
Pretty much, and “not missing any hardware”, “no abrasion buldges cuts dryrot or frays” “not leaking “ i passed my test today, it’s really easy just gotta stick to one video and study it for a week, two weeks max! You’ll pass ✅
Going to watch/listen to this every day!
Thanks for post this video. This is really justice at its finest. ✊🏾💪🏾💯
Very nice inspections. I ll be learning the procedure within the next few weeks.
Brings back memories, when I was at C.R England going for my CDL’s. This was back in February 2019.
I hated this portion of the test..finally got it on my 3rd try. “Not cracked, not broken no missing parts” was drilled into my head.
Thank You, after I saw this video on my training videos I wanted to look for it, it is really helpful.
No problem 👍🏽
This helps a lot. It's a bit much and has to be broken down for me but it's very helpful
I really like this pre trip video good job 👍👍
Thank you for getting straight to the point
I’m at prime now i advise y’all to watch them at least 20 or more times on each section. Focus on a section each day instead of watching the video fully through
This man is on point!
I really like your pre-trip video , its very helpful 👍
Great job love the way you explain
Great video 👍 well explained i was looking for a video to watch to practice for my test i'm glad in found it in this video thanks 🙏
Great video my favorite inspection on UA-cam
That was a great video. Thank you for this video. I just got my cdl permit in the mail and going to apply to Prime the end of this month. Definitely trying to learn the pre-trip now.
He described it perfectly. Same explanation at my trucking school in Houston, TX 👍🏾
where did you take your trucking school in Houston? And what do you have to do first to go to trucking school?
@@ega0117 I had to get my CDL permit first. I’m currently in school, it’s called The Alliance.
How is it going Filisha! Hope everything is looking up! Female truckers 🙌🏾
Engine: steering linkage the pitman arm, drag link, tie rod was not identified by name as required at the SLC terminal.
I’m pounding this in my head while reading the he sheets for the pre trip 😢
This is going to help me so much be going go prime for my cdl thank you heather she's a great recruiter and this pretty much the same for the flat bed n trucks right
Congrats hope you used referral BelleR.. good luck bro 😎
Who is this man if I pass I’m sending him a card!!!!! Does anyone know him?
The pre/post trip inspection is some what the same as nearly 20 years ago. Just watching this video. I see more in depth looking at section and that they're independent of each other.
Extremely helpful video. Im leaving to Prime in two days, and I already have the pre trip memorized
currently on day 12 of PSD. Will be taking my CDL exam on day 14. Aiming for a trifecta
@@TSupraLano I turn 21 in a few days, in which I will be getting my DOT physical and CDL permit and filling out an application for Prime.
@@kiingy4695 be ready man. They called me one day after I applied, the recruiting process is fast. Good luck 👍🏼
Just passed my cdl test. First try passed pre trip, and backing, but failed the road test because my trailer tire rubbed a curb on a roundabout. Two days later I passed the road test. On to TNT now. Can't wait to get my own truck.

I noticed he didn't turn on the wipers or the washer fluid and didn't say that they were not dry rotted or cracked wiper blades

Each state has different variations, the video is specific to Missouri but maybe 96% similar in other states
Perfect pre trip inspection
I dream this just as Dee said I love my school you go Dave 🤘🏽
Thank you so much I passed my test today.
Recap retreads are acceptable on 2nd 3rd 4th 5th axels
Ole David. He’s a good guy.
Very helpful. Thank you.
That’s great. Know they have that information before they get there.
Yes 🙌🏽, hopefully getting Prepared!
One miss on your light check. The back trailer license plate light. Otherwise, good job.
Very explained inspection and helpful
Thank you very much 😊
I'm headed to take my test in NC in a month. I'm going to memorize this video
If you suck at taking exams this will keep you up all night .. it boils down to how bad do you want your cdl
On the exhaust you don't have to say no sign of holes, rust or carbon soot?
I'm greaful for the level of information
Two things, when you get in the cab and put your seatbelt on. I thought you had to tell the examiner the same. Next during the air break test you took the seatbelt off (after checking your air horn it disappears) I can do that during the test?
How many takes did it take to get this all at one time.
Dave is a legend
Take a shot every time he says “not cracked, bent or broken” 🤣
I went to the school and went on the road for a few days and gave it up do you think they would let me return?
Should have about an hour drive time left, try this in michigan in the winter
He went through everything for training purposes but on the test day the examiner would ask you to perform only a section and the compulsory section
lol
He didn’t check the windshield wipers😭😭😭
You missed the driver steps PMS, not CBB, Also missed the wipers
I guess with super singles all around theres no need to check the tires whatsoever (rolls eyes)
Seems like you are good if your truck isn't cracked, bent, or broken.
lol. you make me laugh. not cracked, bent or broken
I wonder how many truckers still say not bent cracked or broken as they do their pre trip
With the new any one can do it standards. This video should only be about 3 minutes..and that includes the minute for the applied pressure test..
This is helpful thx
can you tell me about the test that you have to take with Prime Inc. after you finish with your training what kind of written test? do you have to take with Prime Inc. once you're done with your training you have to make a certain grade on it can you tell me more about that?
Once you pass the CDL test, that’s it, you do your 30,000 miles and once that is over, welcome to trucking, that’s it
What about apron, king pin ,locking jaws . Or did I miss it
Lost one point for wipers! Lol. No problem. You passed!
Congrats 🍾
Might make some of yall upset..but he did his thing
Ok so when I do my pre trip can I go n take my time like with each part so I can remember I wanna do trucking next year and I’m drilling this in a head of time so I can be perfect to do my test
Quick question I leave for training at prime on Monday, and just wanted to know will I be tested on the full truck or will they pick one portion of the truck for the exam?
It would be only the truck, not the trailer
Really gud video
The new trucks has a light inspection button
Yes
Thanks 🤗
Is this test going to be the exact same as Prime Salt Lake?
After watching this video day & nights for a whole month I passed my test. Im very proud of my self and very great full with God & Mr. Dave. And like a comment that I saw.. My will to live is not cracked, bent or broker
I’m proud of you too! 🙏🏽
How in the world you learn all this?
I'm watching this and not a trucker....my life is telling me my purpose cause I. Properly mounted secured not cracked bent and broken
Will the robots have to do this when the musk semis come out
Mmmm what happened checking the windshield wiper
can you still pass without remembering every part and measurement
You can, but you have to collect enough points on the outside parts so that when you do your in-cab you’ll have Atleast the minimum points you need to pass. The minimum is 67, and the air-brake test is pass fail (if you don’t do it correctly you will fail).
Not Crack bent or broken, got it.
I thought the spring arm is also....NONE ARE SHIFTED.
Iam I buggn or he didn't check his windshield wipers🤔
Best video sir
Why u jumped exile 5 ?
I remember this man
Is the pre trip for prime hard because everybody saying it’s hard? I’m coming to prime in about 4 more weeks
No it’s not hard, just take your time
Please !! do i need to turn my brain to a computer to remember all this?
Is the Salt Lake City CDL pre-trip inspection test the same as the Springfield test?
Yes
@@truckerrichierich3088 Thanks!
Very helpfull
U forgot to say the cap is tightly secured
20:00 how are you performing a tractor and trailer brake check with your wheels chocked? 😅 ofcourse your tractor wouldnt move.
Really nice extensive pretrip ❤❤❤
Hello, when doing your engine pretrip, where is your powersteering pump and fuel pump located at? Can you send me a picture of exactly where its located at. I watch your video to help me with getting my cdl
The pumps are on the left side of the vehicle, send me your email and I’ll send you a picture
@@truckerrichierich3088 and thank you for doing that video and sending me the information
@@truckerrichierich3088 hello, did you get to send me the information about the parts I asked about?
How many times should I use proper mounted and secured in inspection
As many times as possible
Even for the In-cab inpsection gauges...just get used to saying.
My sanity unfortunately is cracked, bent, and broken.
Did you check the license plate light?
Yes, and it was not cracked, bent or broken.
Is there anywhere I can get this list and walk around
Trucking angel has it on her UA-cam channel
He left out not cracked bent or broken
Anybody can do that on a nice dry day if you want to really impress people do it during a thunderstorm or when it's minus 20 degrees outside 😁
