Safety Audit Compliance
A Safety Audit is a review of a motor carrier’s records designed to verify that the carrier has basic safety management controls in place to ensure compliance with the FMCSA.
All interstate carriers need to go through an FMCSA audit at least once to ensure that all safety requirements are being met.
Required Documentation
Carriers must submit documentation related to:
- Drivers license copies and drivers medicals
- MVR reports
- Vehicle inspection reports
- Drug and Alcohol program documentation
- Records of Duty (RODs)
- Insurance
Why Audits are Important
It is important to go through the audit to maintain active FMCSA operating authority and to ensure the safety of everyone on the road.
