DOT Inspection
Drivers may get pulled over at any time by DOT inspectors. They can send a report to the inspector through the driver's app. There are several different ways to access it.
In the upper right hand corner of the "dashboard" or "main screen", there should be an icon that resembles a police hat.
From the left side menu, select "DOT Inspection"
Under the "Previous Logs" section, in the bottom right corner
On the next screen, there will be a Police hat in the middle of the screen with DOT Inspection beneath it. Select the option that is required:
Inspection on Screen - Inspection on screen will display the FMCSA mandated information header, Hours Of Service graphic, and a detailed list of events. The information will be available for the current 24-hour period and each of the previous 7 consecutive days. Any unidentified driver profile events for that vehicle will also be presented at the bottom of the event list and also through the shortcut button.
Send to Email
Send to Webservice
If an authorized safety official provides a key phrase or code during an inspection, this should be included as a comment in the ELD record. When the driver chooses to Send to Email or Send to Webservice, the EZ-ELD will allow the driver to enter a comment in the output file for this purpose.
Select send to transfer the data over. To note: the send button will only send a command to the Back Office software. Then, it will automatically send the required data to the FMCSA. You can also send this data to any other email address by entering the email address details in the "Data transfer" page on the EZ-ELD Back Office Software.
