SECTOR KK • INTERMODAL CHASSIS FLEET SAFETY
IEP Chassis Roadability DVIR Pre-Trip Safety & Audit
Protect drivers from CSA violations and dispute erroneous pool rental bills: 49 CFR Part 396 pre-trip checklists, digital DVIR photo verification, bad-order gate tickets, and M&R reconciliation.
Enforcing Equipment Roadability at Rail & Ocean Terminals
Intermodal chassis pools suffer from high wear and deferred maintenance. When drivers accept unroadable equipment without filing an electronic DVIR, motor carriers bear the brunt of DOT roadside out-of-service violations, brake failures, and wrongful maintenance chargebacks from chassis pool operators.
Mandatory electronic pre-trip audit covering twist locks, tires, brakes, and electrical couplings.
Automated gate lockouts preventing dispatch on chassis flagged with unresolved safety defects.
Instant proof packets defeating improper per diem and repair debit memos from IEPs.

Simulate chassis pre-trip inspection findings, determine roadability clearance, and audit disputed chassis pool daily rental charges.
Chassis Roadability & Financial Dispute Results
Chassis Roadability Status: CERTIFIED ROADABLE • GATE PASS APPROVED
Driver Pre-Trip DVIR Action: Electronic Sign-Off Submitted to IEP
Disputed Improper Rental Billing: $1,848.00 USD Recoverable
DOT Roadside Violation Risk: Zero Risk (Pre-Cleared Equipment)
Dispute Proof Evidence: Timestamped EIR Interchange + Bad-Order Ticket
Under federal law, IEPs cannot bill daily usage fees for days when intermodal equipment is documented under bad order repair holds.
How EXSPEEDITE Controls Intermodal Chassis Operations
1. Mobile Driver DVIR with Photo Capture
Drivers complete mandatory 14-point inspections in under 90 seconds on the EXSPEEDITE app. If a tire is damaged, photo evidence and GPS timestamps are uploaded instantly to the IEP.
2. Automated EIR Gate Match
Chassis numbers are scanned via optical OCR at terminal gates. EXSPEEDITE matches the in-gate timestamp against IEP billing files to ensure you are never billed an extra day.
3. Automated M&R Dispute Packets
When an IEP issues an improper invoice for bad-order days, EXSPEEDITE generates a pre-formatted dispute packet with interchange receipts, eliminating hours of manual back-and-forth.
