Everyone knows that alcohol, drugs, and driving don't mix. Yet drivers who are under the influence are still a major cause of accidents. To help ensure that drivers of commercial vehicles stay drug- and alcohol-free behind the wheel, the Federal Transportation Employee Testing Act requires motor carriers to establish rigorous drug and alcohol testing programs. In this course, we discuss this requirement and how it affects transportation employees, as well as the testing process itself, what happens if a driver tests positive for a substance, and how to get help for a drug or alcohol problem.
Topics include:
- The regulations created by the DOT and the FMCSA
- Types of drug and alcohol tests
- How the tests are conducted
- Steps involved in removing a driver
- The way to get a driver substance abuse help
- When a driver can return to work
