This book identifies the programs and websites made available by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) to provide publicly available information about motor carriers and further ensure public safety. It then discusses four of the most common compliance problems among motor carriers and drivers: hours of service, valid medical certificates, drug and alcohol screens, and non-English speaking drivers. Finally, we consider the documents and records to be preserved in anticipation of or during the course of litigation.
