Any employer with one or more CDL-holding employees who operate commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) in interstate commerce is subject to FMCSA drug and alcohol testing rules. Small fleets that cannot meet minimum testing rates alone must join a consortium.
Current minimum annual testing rates set by FMCSA under 49 CFR Part 382.305. Our program ensures your fleet meets or exceeds these requirements.
The federal Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse tracks CDL driver violations. Here's what you need to know — and what you can handle yourself.
The Clearinghouse is a federal database that records CDL drivers' drug and alcohol violations — positive tests, refusals, return-to-duty activity, and follow-up results. Employers are required to query it before a driver operates under their authority, and annually after that.
