VEH 007 - Daily Defect Report Pads (Duplicate) -

Easy-to-use daily defect report pad

Daily defect checks are vital, and the results of such checks should be recorded.

If you are the user of the vehicle, it is your responsibility to ensure that any hired, leased or borrowed vehicle is in roadworthy condition and has all the necessary certification when used on the road. Therefore it is essential that you do a daily walk-round check before any such vehicle is used.

It is your responsibility to be able to provide maintenance records covering the period of use. Any defects found during the daily check must be the subject of a written report by the person responsible for recording defects.

The check should cover the external condition, ensuring in particular that the lights, tyres, wheel fixings, bodywork, trailer coupling, load and ancillary equipment are serviceable.
