How to Avoid These Top Driver File Violations and Protect Your Business

Driver Qualification File Management

As a business owner, it’s important to be aware of the top driver file violations and take steps to avoid them. Driving a commercial motor vehicle without the proper qualifications or driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol can lead to serious fines and even jail time. By keeping up with DQ file management and maintaining accurate records, you can protect your business from costly penalties.

Disqualified Drivers

It’s against the law to allow a driver who doesn’t have the proper qualifications to operate a commercial motor vehicle. If you’re caught doing this, you could face steep fines and even jail time. To avoid this, make sure you keep up with DQ file management and only allow qualified drivers to operate your vehicles.

Inquiries Into Driving Records

You are required by law to maintain a file on each driver that includes inquiries into their driving record. These inquiries must be made at least once every 12 months. Failure to do so can result in hefty penalties. To avoid this, make sure you keep up with DQ file management and keep accurate records of all inquiries made into your drivers’ records in the case of an audit.

Medical Certificates

Each driver is required to have a valid medical certificate on file. This certificate must be renewed every two years. Failure to maintain a valid certificate can result in penalties. To avoid this, make sure you keep up with DQ file management and keep accurate records of all medical certificates.

Do You Have a Driver File for Each Driver?

You are required by law to maintain a driver file for each driver. This file must contain all of the information required by the DOT. Failure to do so can result in hefty penalties. To avoid this, make sure you keep up with DQ file management and keep accurate records of all drivers.

Keeping Up with DQ File Management

DQ file management is important for any business that owns commercial motor vehicles. Digital DQ files make it easy to keep up with DQ file management and ensure compliance with DOT regulations. With digital DQ files, you can easily track driver records, medical certificates, driving history, and much more. Accessing and finding a particular record couldn’t be easier with DQMConnect™.
