Review Your Program
Free DOT Compliance Self-Check
A guided review of driver qualification files, drug and alcohol testing, hours of service, vehicle records, and everyday safety practices.
Designed for: U.S. trucking company owners, fleet safety managers, and staff responsible for DOT compliance.
Identify items that need a closer look.
Get practical improvement suggestions with MSM articles and official FMCSA references.
Work through the crash facts that determine FMCSA post-accident testing requirements. Review separate alcohol and drug testing decisions, see the accident-based deadlines, and print a record of the facts and next steps.
Who it’s for: Motor carriers, safety managers, dispatchers, and designated employer representatives reviewing an accident involving a driver covered by FMCSA Part 382.
Check fatality, injury, disabling-damage, and citation conditions.
Track the two-hour alcohol checkpoint and separate eight- and 32-hour testing windows.
Keep a professional decision record with notes and official rule references.
For a current accident, start with the post-accident testing tool and contact your designated employer representative promptly. For a broader program review, begin with the self-check. Use the training planner to turn your safety priorities into monthly conversations, practical exercises, and follow-up activities.
Put the Results to Work
Review each suggestion against your operation, assign a person to follow through, and set a review date. These tools support planning and internal review; they do not certify compliance or replace required training and records.
Compliance Toolkit Questions
Are these trucking compliance tools free?
Yes. The public self-check and training planner are free to use without an account. You can review your results and save or print them.
Who are these tools designed for?
They are designed for U.S. motor carrier owners, safety managers, and staff supporting property-carrying fleets. Review the guidance for your operation, equipment, and applicable requirements.
Does a completed self-check prove that my fleet is compliant?
No. Results depend on the answers you enter and are intended to guide your own review. A self-check is not an audit, safety rating, or certification of compliance.
What can I download from the training planner?
You can print or save a PDF plan, export the calendar as a CSV, and download an editable draft to reopen later. The report includes monthly action sheets, toolbox talks, notes, and weekly activities when selected.
