Would your trucking company be prepared if the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration notified you that FMCSA would be conducting an audit of your operation? In this episode of the podcast, Mark Barlar and Daniel Vega from the Reliance Partners Safety Impact Team offer a collection of helpful insights on preparing for and surviving an audit by FMCSA. Reliance Partners Chief Revenue Officer Thom Albrecht serves as the host and moderator of a conversation that allows both Mark and Daniel to call upon their experience as commercial vehicle enforcement officers before they each joined the Reliance Team.
As you will hear, Mark and Daniel note the importance of how understanding the audit process is crucial for compliance. They also explore the factors that auditors consider during an audit, including the significance of acute and critical violations, and how these can impact a motor carrier’s safety rating. Mark and Daniel take time during this episode to discuss the importance of mock audits as part of maintaining compliance and being prepared in case of an audit by FMCSA.
Through this episode of the podcast, originally broadcast as a live webinar by Reliance Partners, we’ll share an update with you on the enforcement of the English language proficiency requirements for CDL and non-CDL drivers, which was in the early stages of implementation at the time of the recording. In this part of the discussion, Mark and Daniel address the current trends in ELP enforcement and the challenges faced by drivers with language barriers, emphasizing the need for proactive measures to ensure compliance and safety on our roads.
