The Course is from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM CST.

Do you operate commercial motor vehicles, engage in interstate and intrastate commerce, know what vehicles require a CDL to operate, or who is subject to DOT Drug testing? Navigating through the myriad of commercial motor vehicle regulatory requirements can be challenging, confusing, frustrating, and potentially costly if you get it wrong. This session will address which vehicles and drivers are subject to the regulations, the applicable regulatory requirements, and how to comply.
