Preparing for an FMCSA New Entrant Safety Audit
New interstate carriers should prepare real driver, hours-of-service, testing, vehicle and operating records for an FMCSA Safety Audit. Confirm the requested period and submission channel with the auditor. Address missing records honestly. If the audit fails, submit documented corrective actions promptly and distinguish CAP submission guidance from regulatory correction deadlines and any out-of-service effective date.
