Learn it step-by-step. Memorize it the right way. Pass your test with confidence.
This Pre-Trip Inspection training is built directly from how J&R instructors teach students in the yard. Each section is broken down into individual videos so you can follow along, repeat, and fully understand what to say, what to point at, and how to explain each item exactly the way examiners expect.
You’re not just watching — you’re preparing to perform.

You’ll go through the full Pre-Trip Inspection process, including:
• Front of the Truck & Lenses

How This Helps You
The Pre-Trip Inspection is not just about knowing the parts — you must:
- Name the component
- Point to or touch it
- Clearly explain what you are checking
If you don’t do all three, you don’t get credit
This training helps you:
- Learn the correct wording and flow
- Build repetition through video review
- Understand what examiners are looking for
- Practice at your own pace before going to the yard
Who This Is For
- J&R students preparing for their CDL test
- Students struggling to memorize the pre-trip
- Anyone who wants to practice outside of yard time
Train Before You Test
Show up prepared. Speak with confidence. Pass the first time.
