Frequently Asked Questions

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
  • Criminal Background Checks
  • 7 Day Logs
  • Training Records
  • Medical Records
  • Personnel / HR Records
  • Accident Records
  • Drug and Alcohol Testing
  • Maintenance and 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
