An operator inspects the dashboard instruments, steering mechanism, and emergency safety gear inside the cab before beginning a route. Which of the following findings complies with all commercial motor vehicle safety standards?
- AThe 20-inch power steering wheel exhibits approximately 3 inches of free play before engaging the steering linkage.
- The emergency safety storage holds three red reflective triangles, spare electrical fuses, and a properly rated, fully charged fire extinguisher.Cevap
- CThe emergency equipment pack contains two red reflective triangles and six liquid-burning flares.
- DThe cab contains three reflective triangles and a fire extinguisher, but carries no spare electrical fuses because circuit breakers are assumed without verification.
Cevap
The condition where the cab is equipped with three red reflective triangles, spare electrical fuses, and a properly rated, fully charged fire extinguisher satisfies all safety standards.
Federal commercial motor vehicle safety regulations require commercial drivers to verify the presence of three specific emergency items during the in-cab inspection: three red reflective triangles in good condition, spare electrical fuses (for vehicles using fuses), and a properly rated, fully charged, and securely mounted fire extinguisher.
