If i did my 9 minute van check before starting my rural delivery (16 mins if its the vans first time out for that week), and then i returned later to perform my SA and used the same van, do i still have to do the 4 minute van check? Or, because nobody has used the van since i last did (assuming clocked mileage hasn't altered) would it be looked upon as already checked for that day?
Or should the 4 minute check take place regardless?
Thanks

Re: Van checks on SA
Would assume as long as you did all your checks when you picked up the van then that would be fine, have used my issued van for other duties and never done the checks. Always do checks if someone else has used it since you last used it, always sign the van back in even if a fellow worker asks to use it for a few minutes, as you get the ticket if they get seen speeding, then do van checks when they give it back. Once took on a van with two bald tyres, one punctured tyre, empty washer bottle( was bone dry), below minimum oil level and almost no water in radiator, normal driver had been driving it for a couple of days before.

Thank you for the above. I just wanted to check.
Is there a check list for each of the vehicle check? 4min, 9 mins, 16 mins

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
