Mile Marker 18 – Inside a DOT Stop with Master Trooper Scott Baker
In this episode of Beyond the Bulldog, we sit down with Master Trooper Scott Baker of the North Carolina State Highway Patrol. With more than two decades of experience in commercial vehicle enforcement, Baker shares practical insights on inspections, crash prevention, and how technology is reshaping road safety.
Scott discusses:
-What really happens during Level 1, 2, and 3 DOT inspections
-How pre-trip discipline and good habits prevent most violations
-The rise of AI camera systems spotting distracted driving and seatbelt misuse
-Crash patterns troopers see daily — and how drivers can stay out of them
With a focus on education over punishment, Baker emphasizes that inspections aren’t about writing tickets — they’re about keeping drivers, fleets, and the public safe.
