In 2009, there were 14,466 Department of Transportation (DOT) audits, known as Safety Compliance Reviews, conducted by federal and state inspectors at commercial vehicle facilities. Most DOT audits occur with no advance notice. Inspectors are authorized to review any aspect of DOT regulations during their visit as well as conduct employee interviews. Violations may be acute, requiring immediate corrective action, or critical, indicative of a management or operational breakdown. The best way to prepare for a DOT audit is to follow regulations, maintain proper documentation and understand what the audit process requires.
