The DOT follows specific steps for each inspection type. The 6 inspection levels are:

#1 North American Standard Inspection – This in-depth inspection focuses on the driver and the truck. Drivers must have a daily log and Hours of Service document, a DVIR, and a driver's license. The inspector will check everything, starting with the brake system and ending with the windshield wipers.

#2 Walk-Around DOT Inspection – this inspection is similar to Level 1. However, the officer will only check the exterior of the truck.

#3 Driver-Only Inspection – the level 3 inspection focuses on the driver. The inspector will check the Record of Duty Status, HAZMAT requirements, medical cards, SPE certificates, and many more.

#4 Special Inspection – this is a one-time inspection examining a specific vehicle feature. The DOT aims to check a common violation from a previous year's inspection to establish improvement over time.

#5 Vehicle-Only Inspection – this DOT inspection is similar to Level 1 but is performed without the driver present. Usually, it happens after an incident when a driver isn't on-site anymore.

#6 Enhanced NAS Inspection For Radioactive Shipments – the level 6 DOT inspection was designed for motor carriers transporting radioactive materials or special substances.
