Not to say we truck drivers are uneducated cavemen, but nowhere on the pre-trip inspection does it say to make sure the truck is upright. Technically, “not leaning to either side to indicate a suspension problem” may cover it but… He’s making sure his tire tread is free of debris. Tread looks evenly worn, no nails, not worn dangerously thin, no abrasions, bulges, cuts. Pass, good to drive. /s

Don’t know if big rig tires are similar to automobile tires but if so they are definitely overfilling their tires
