To get the most out of their Onspot investment, many fleet managers supply their drivers with checklists. These checklists make it easy for drivers to maintain the vehicle. Learn more and download the checklist here. Performing a pre-check of the vehicle increases the efficiency of the fleet. A more efficient fleet enables the delivery of vital goods to end users and assists in saving lives which are great wins. Vehicle pre-checks also help to keep equipment in good condition resulting in cost savings. The experienced fleet manager makes sure that the drivers of the fleet are well-equipped and trained. Keeping skilled drivers continuously trained is as important as teaching new drivers. There are always new skills to learn or refresher courses to help maintain fleet efficiency. **The Onspot automatic tire chains are equally effective in both forward and reverse.** The statement above is the answer to the often asked question - "Does the automatic tire chain system also work in reverse?" This question and many others are covered in the Drivers Checklist. Download it below and share it with the drivers and colleagues of your fleet or you can also share the link: [![Download Operating Instructions](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/1905643/3b2a4bfb-98bd-4480-929d-1b8f5e45db54.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/1905643/3b2a4bfb-98bd-4480-929d-1b8f5e45db54)             [Content for commercial drivers](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/topic/content-for-commercial-drivers) [Fleet Managers](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/topic/fleet-managers) [Maintenance](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/topic/maintenance) [onspot](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/topic/onspot) [Commercial Drivers](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/topic/commercial-drivers) [Fleet Productivity](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/topic/fleet-productivity) [Onspot service](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/topic/onspot-service) [checklist](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/topic/checklist) ![Ulrik Andersson](https://intblog.onspot.com/hubfs/Ulrik%20Andersson%202024%2016-9%20vertical_edited%20II.jpg) #### About [Ulrik Andersson](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/author/ulrik-andersson) ## Comments ### Subscribe to blog updates ### Recent Posts ### Posts by Topic -
