DVIR (운전자 차량 점검 보고서)

This page is in English. Where a word has a checked translation, it appears next to the English term.

A driver vehicle inspection report (DVIR) is the written end-of-day defect report.

You fill it out after your post-trip inspection and list anything that affects safety or could cause a breakdown. The carrier must fix or clear each item. The next driver reviews it and signs only if defects were listed and certified.

Also called: DVIR, vehicle inspection report, post-trip inspection

Why it matters on the CDL test

Questions ask when a vehicle inspection report is required, what it must include, and when you sign the previous driver's report.
