Good Information

What you need to know about DOT Compliance.

There’s so much more to being a commercial driver than simply getting behind the wheel and driving to your destination.

Every time a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) driver gets behind the wheel, there are compliance regulations that must be met. These regulations are set forth by the Department of Transportation (DOT) and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). Failure to comply with DOT regulations can result in serious implications, including Citations, Inspections, and vehicles being put Out Of Service.

At Last Frontier CMV, DOT compliance is taught by a retired DOT inspector. Training carriers and drivers to be in compliance before entering the roadways.

What are the requirements to be considered an CMV?

DOT regulations are applicable to any CMV operator in the United States—not just trucking companies. A CMV, outside of belonging to a company or corporation, is defined as any vehicle that satisfies one of the following conditions:

· Weighs (including any load) 10,001 lbs or more and is in commerce.

· Transports hazardous materials (property-carrying vehicle) in a quantity requiring a hazardous material placard

· Transports 16 or more passengers (passenger-carrying vehicle), including the driver, without compensation

· Transports 9 or more passengers (passenger-carrying vehicle), including the driver, for compensation

Can I challenge the results of a DOT inspection?

Yes. If you discover incorrect/incomplete information on your record, the FMCSA’s DataQs is where you submit your request for a review. We suggest checking out the DataQs Help Center for more information on how to review your safety data, how to submit a Request for Data Review (RDR), and much more.
