Quick answer:
- Check brakes, tires, fluids, and battery at handover.
- Log existing damage and dashboard lights.
- A quick on-site inspection avoids surprise downtime.
Safety and Wear Items
At handover, check brakes, tire condition and pressure, fluid levels, wipers, and lights. These are the things a new driver shouldn’t inherit as a hidden problem.
Document the Condition
Note any existing damage and any dashboard warning lights so issues are tracked and addressed, not passed silently from driver to driver.
