What Not To Do After A DOT Inspection...

That'll probably go on his DAC.
DAC:
Drive-A-Check Report
A truck drivers DAC report will contain detailed information about their job history of the last 10 years as a CDL driver (as required by the DOT).
It may also contain your criminal history, drug test results, DOT infractions and accident history. The program is strictly voluntary from a company standpoint, but most of the medium-to-large carriers will participate.
Most trucking companies use DAC reports as part of their hiring and background check process. It is extremely important that drivers verify that the information contained in it is correct, and have it fixed if it's not.

Uh....jaw drop...****...I have no words for this clip. Hopefully the driver is alright. But What the **** was he thinking.
DOT:
Department Of Transportation
A department of the federal executive branch responsible for the national highways and for railroad and airline safety. It also manages Amtrak, the national railroad system, and the Coast Guard.
State and Federal DOT Officers are responsible for commercial vehicle enforcement. "The truck police" you could call them.
Nice! LOL
Wow that was terrible, though the trooper is listening to some great music!
Obviously the truck driver doesn't notice the change of railroad crossing warning lights. Thus for sure it's a driver's error.
