"I sleep well at night knowing that I am 100% compliant.”

Eli McCormick, Bestway Express

"With A-Suite, I'm able to do access my work at my house instead of at the office...and that that means having a happier life, happier wife and family because I can be present when I need to be."

Travis Menefeee, ATCO Hauling

"Our old software wasn’t user-friendly, and there was poor imaging. We had to search a lot for different driver file documents.

Now with AvatarFleet, we can access whatever document we need in a matter of seconds. It really made my staff happy, and if my staff’s happy, then I’m happy.”

Ron Patterson, Puryear Tank Lines

FAQs

What is DOT Compliance?

The Department of Transportation (or DOT) has a set of rules and regulations that govern commercial drivers - these rules essentially govern who can drive what vehicles where and when. The intent of these rules and regulations is to keep drivers, both professional and amateur, safe.

What is needed for DOT compliance?

While the DOT has a full list in their rules manual, the following are some of the essentials for staying DOT compliant:

Driver Qualification Files
Driver Applications
Disclosure and Authorization Forms
Pre-Hire Motor Vehicle Records
Previous Employment Verification
Road Tests
Medical Certificate / Med Cards
Annual Motor Vehicle Records
Certificate of Violations / Annual Reviews

7 Day Logs

Why Is It Important to Be DOT Compliant?

Each compliance violation under the current Federal Motor Carriage Safety Association’s regulations can cost you at least $11,000. Even worse, failure to comply with DOT regulations can prevent drivers from being on the road or even prevent your company from conducting business.

What is a DOT Audit?

A Department of Transportation (DOT) Audit or review helps determine a transportation company's compliance with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR).

There are several things that can trigger a DOT audit:

Accidents or a large number of tickets
Failed roadside inspections
Failing the new entrant safety audit
Whistleblowers, a concerned safety team member who may contact the DOT to report violations

How long will it take for me to get DOT compliant?

Most organizations can become DOT compliant within 20 Business Days (1 Month).
