Commercial Driver's License

Category - Basic Operation

When driving in very hot weather, commercial vehicle operators should inspect their tires:
  1. Every 90 minutes or 100 miles
  2. Every 60 minutes, 50 miles
  3. Every 3 hours, 200 miles
  4. Every 2 hours, 100 miles
Explanation
Answer: D - When driving in very hot weather, commercial vehicle operators should pull over and inspect their tires every 2 hours or 100 miles. Hot weather can cause the tires to overheat which can lead to tire fires. This periodic inspection is especially important for those who may be operating vehicles that have dual tires. If your tires are too hot to touch, they are too hot to drive, and the vehicle should remain stopped until they cool off. Hot tires can also blow out if they are not allowed to cool down periodically.
