Running out of hours does not make the rest of a business trip personal. Check FMCSA’s safe-parking guidance, dispatch limits and coercion warning before the truck moves.
A favorable FMCSA crash review does not erase your recordkeeping duty. Check which crashes qualify, the six required fields and the three-year retention rule.
SAP clearance, the correct return-to-duty test, Clearinghouse status, license reinstatement and follow-up testing are separate steps. Here is what a carrier must check.
The 2027 UCR fee schedule is effective and registration is open. Check your fleet bracket, any automatic renewal and the separate MCS-150 enforcement pause before paying.
A no-defect daily report may be unnecessary under the federal rule. Vehicle checks, reportable defects and repair closeout still need a clear fleet procedure.
A malfunctioning ELD starts separate driver, repair and extension-request duties. Learn when the eight-day and five-day clocks start and what dispatch should preserve.
A clinic visit is not a verified negative drug-test result. Before a covered CDL driver performs safety-sensitive work, the carrier needs the result or a properly documented testing exception—and a separate Clearinghouse check.
All states have implemented FMCSA’s revised safety-data review process. Know the three review stages, 30-day appeal window and 14-day response duty before challenging an inspection record.
Since July 22, 2026, the federal rule requires returning a completed roadside inspection form when the issuing state requests it. Correcting violations, certifying the report and keeping it remain separate duties.
The decal on the truck and the report in the office serve different purposes. Check the federal inspection documentation rules before treating one as the other.
