They did not come to my office but I did have to go to them. They were about an hour away. They sent an email that I contained a checklist of all the things you mentioned. Those are all the things I had to take with me. The email has the auditor’s phone number. I called and asked for clarification on some of the items. I had to upload the driver logs two day prior to going to the audit. This particular audit does not charge fines. They were informative. My email came from the department of public safety. Your information is spot on.
I think everyone would agree that you are truly informative and give out nuggets that are keys to any business in trucking to be succefull. All the information you provide is much appreciated!💯💯💯. Thank you!!
Mine is in the State of Texas. The paperwork Audit I have to walk in on appointment. I have all in a binder and neat. I am non CDL. So no drug test requirement, and pre 2000 vehicle, so I am one of the few with paper logs. Texas said bring 6 months of logs. I have from the Beginning of my authority. I have maintenance records and receipts of many things I bought to back it up. They require a lot. As you said organized is the way
Hey David, thanks for the fantastic video. I did want to follow up on your response re the applicability to a business with vehicles < 26,000 GVWR. My read of the statute ( §382.103) a company must implement a DOT drug and alcohol program for all drivers operating a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) that requires the driver to possess a commercial driver’s license (CDL). While vehicles over 10,000 lbs are classified as CMVs, certain vehicles < 26,000 can be operated without a CDL and should be exempt.
I've found many of you videos helpful now that I learn your accountant it makes sense your thoroughness. It's nice that utube allows people like me to access smart people's knowledge I need it and appreciate it. Thank you
I made an appointment to talk with David because I needed to get ready for an Audit and I am glad that I did, he was very helpful in directing me in the right direction. Very informative on the important paperwork I needed that he mentioned in this video and I appreciate the fact that he explained the list of items like he did in this video. Thank You David.
Hello David I am starting a trucking company with my family since they have been driver operators leasing authority for so many years. Thanks to people like you this process is really smooth - I kept wondering if I will meet someone willing to share this information but always though of people as selfish - you make a huge difference ! Cant thank you enough ! Every video I play gives me an answer to a question or concern!
David, I'm so grateful for all the information you're sharing. I was in the school system for the last 13 years but now I'm trying to help a very ill family member maintain his trucking company. I have little to NO knowledge or experience in trucking but I'm willing to learn as much as I can in a short period. Your videos have helped me to better understand the different systems, compliances, tax laws, etc. of the trucking industry. Keep teaching King!!!! There are people out here that need and appreciate your wisdom and knowledge.
Thanks so much! I’m definitely going to enroll in the drug program. I still haven’t started yet just got my ELD today so. Will have people go for drug part now! I want to be right before going out on the road!
I just want to say how appreciative I am for your videos. I currently work for Amazon. I was a CDL driver directly working for Amazon and was recently promoted to manager. We are paid SHIT compared to other companies. UPS, 3PC, and even the 3P shuttle drivers, we pay to move trailers from our offsite make more than us. Even me as the manager, I make less the the 3P shuttle driver that move trailers to and from our off site. I am learning a lot from my current role and your videos are helping me prepare for my (hopeful) transfer to my own company. Thank you, you are a good man. Thank you for giving me your knowledge. I live in your area and I have much respect for you making it on your own.
I just signed up with Foley. They have a nice easy to use website for uploading ur docs. A bit pricey but I don't have to worry about doc expiring because they will let me know before hand. Good luck!
Hey brother I just watched your video it was very helpful thanks 🙏🏻 but I do have a question about hazmat carriers my question is when do you need hazmat uniforms alliance certificate?
Hi, thank you so much for this vital information. I do have a question I've been trying to find forms for sale tax exempt. Can you please direct me to the correct website and what to do?
11th MONTH IN I JUST GOT MINE WEDNESDAY, 20 DAYS TO HAVE IT IN(Texas) ITS PRETTY SIMPLE JUST UPLOAD YOUR DOCUMENTS, & AFTER THEY WILL LET YOU KNOW IN 45 DAYS IF YOU PASSED OR FAILED!!!! JUST MAKE SURE TO HAVE YOUR PAPERWORK IN ORDER/STRAIGHT 👍🏾👌🏾
Like the video and subscribe. I appreciate you putting in the time to make this checklist and presentation. I will be signing up for updates and following your channel be safe and successful.
So for the proof of insurance can I just sent the the certificate of insurance or we have to have the form mcs-90 we don’t transport any hazards material we only deal with Amazon relay.
For the ELD log, what if you have ELD but don't really use it because you do Amazon postal loads with 26ft box truck only? Can a paper log book be sufficient enough to to satisfy DOT audit?
As far as submitting drivers logs, what if you haven’t been driving for the past few months bc truck has been in the shop? And where can I can pull my driving record?
Having my authority and running a cargo Van, how would that audit go? How would they go about the audit If you have your authority and running a cargo Van? Because having a cargo Van, Some of those requirements does not apply to the cargo van.
My question is: We are going to be renting out box truck for the first 30 to 60 days or so. Will we still have to provide proof of insurance and a vehicle list? We plan on using the truck rental business insurance package for now.
Hello Brother, Can you PLEASE cover the CLEARINGHOUSE NEW LAW. What it is and HOW TO BECOME COMPLIANT. If you should do it yourself, or have somebody else do it for you.
Thank you for the detailed video David. I’m a big fan of your videos. I’m up for my safety Audit and would love to have your template to get an outstanding audit. Do you want mind emailing it to me?
