While conducting a post-trip inspection, a driver finds that a seat has been damaged, apparently from vandalism during the route. What does the AAMVA CDL Manual say the driver should do?

AAMVA CDL Manual, Section 10.2.6 – Post-trip Inspection, p. 10-5

Immediate reporting lets a school district address vandalism or damage before the next group of students boards, and it creates a paper trail that protects the driver if questions come up later about when and how the damage occurred.
