Describe reckless disregard
Give this one a try later!
An act of proceeding to do something with a conscious awareness of
danger, while ignoring any potential consequences of doing so.
While reckless disregard does not necessarily suggest intent to cause
harm, it is a harsher condition than ordinary negligence
As related to documentation, reporting and follow up, who should establish an
inspection and maintenance policy

Explain the function of the load monitor in an Electrical Load Management System
Give this one a try later!
, Load sequencer- turns on various lights at specified intervals so that start
up electrical load for all devices does not occur at the same time
Load monitor- Watches system for any added electrical load that threatens
to overload the system
Load shedding - Will shut down less important electrical equipment in
order to prevent overload.
Will shut off lights or go into high idle to prevent killing the battery

Up to the state / AHJ
-Process for shutting down the engine immediately after a full load operation
-Negative effects if not done correctly

, -Idle for 3-5 min (or 1-2 min) to normal operating temp
-Follow manufacturer recommendation
-Book- Carbon build up in injectors, valves and pistons, damage to engine
and emission systems
-Increase in engine temp due to lack of coolant circulating
-oil film "burning" on hot surfaces
-Damage to : heads, exhaust manifold
-Damage the turbo (may cause seizure

Release brakes and allow the wheels to rotate freely.
Turn the steering wheel in the direction the vehicle should be traveling.
If you oversteer you will lose control of the vehicle
