Filing Form 2290 is only part of the process. Keeping your proof matters too.

After filing, make sure your HVUT documentation is:

• Saved and easily accessible
• Matched to the correct vehicle and VIN
• Stored with your important vehicle records
• Available when needed for registration-related processes

Don’t wait until you need the document to start looking for it.

File It. Save It. Keep Your Records Ready.

Q3 IFTA filing may still be weeks away, but now is the time to get your records organized.

Before the deadline gets close, start reviewing:

• Mileage traveled from July through September
• Miles driven in each jurisdiction
• Fuel purchases and receipts
• Missing or incomplete documentation
• Records that need to be corrected or verified

Waiting until filing time to organize three months of records can turn small issues into bigger problems.

Start Early. Stay Organized. Be Ready for Q3 IFTA.

When a driver leaves your company, the compliance work isn’t over.

A proper offboarding process helps protect your records and keeps your fleet organized.

Make sure you review:

• Driver Qualification (DQ) and employment records
• Required record retention
• Company equipment, documents, and credentials
• ELD and other system access
• Safety and compliance documentation
• Former-driver files for completeness

Whether a driver resigns or is terminated, their records should remain properly organized and retained as required.

Driver Leaves. Records Stay. Keep Compliance Organized.

Crossing state lines can mean more than just having your federal authority in place.

Some states have additional permit, registration, or tax requirements that interstate carriers need to be aware of.

States that often require extra attention include:

• Kentucky – KYU requirements
• New Mexico – weight-distance tax requirements
• New York – Highway Use Tax (HUT)
• Oregon – weight-mile tax requirements

Before adding a new state to your routes, make sure you understand what registrations, permits, and tax obligations may apply to your operation.

New Route. New State. Check the Requirements First.

A trucking accident can happen in seconds. What happens next matters.

Having a clear accident-response process helps your team know exactly what information needs to be collected and documented.

After an accident, make sure you have:

• Driver and vehicle information
• Accident details and documentation
• Police or incident reports
• Photos and supporting records
• Insurance information
• Required internal documentation

Don’t wait for an accident to decide what your process should be.

Prepare the Process. Document the Details. Protect Your Operation.

Your ELD collects the data. But compliance still requires someone to review it.

Having an Electronic Logging Device does not automatically prevent Hours of Service violations.

Regular ELD reviews can help identify:

• Log errors and missing entries
• Recurring HOS violations
• Missing supporting documents
• Patterns that may require driver training
• Issues that should be corrected before they become bigger problems

Technology is a tool—not a replacement for proper compliance management.

Review the Data. Catch the Issues. Keep Your Fleet Compliant.

Today, we pause to remember September 11, 2001.

We honor:

• Those who lost their lives
• The first responders who answered the call
• The service members who served our country
• The families and communities forever affected

We remember their courage, sacrifice, and resilience.

We will never forget.

Hiring a qualified driver is only the beginning.

A driver’s record can change after they join your fleet, which is why ongoing MVR monitoring is an important part of driver compliance.

Regular reviews can help identify:

• New traffic violations
• License suspensions
• License restrictions
• Changes in license status
• Other issues that may affect driver qualification

Don’t assume everything is still current just because it was verified during hiring.

Create a process for reviewing driver records and addressing changes when they happen.

Today, we celebrate the people who keep America moving.

Every day, the transportation industry depends on dedicated professionals working together:

• Truck drivers covering the miles
• Dispatchers coordinating the loads
• Mechanics keeping trucks road-ready
• Fleet managers keeping operations moving
• Warehouse teams handling the freight

This Labor Day, we recognize your hard work and the important role you play in keeping businesses and communities connected.

Happy Labor Day from TD Licensing & Consulting LLC!

Hiring a new driver is an important step for your business.

But before they get behind the wheel, make sure the compliance side is ready too.

A new driver’s onboarding process should include the required qualification records and checks, such as:

• Complete Driver Qualification (DQ) file
• Valid CDL verification
• Motor Vehicle Record (MVR)
• Medical qualification documentation
• Drug and alcohol testing requirements
• Employment and driving history
• Required onboarding and safety documentation

Missing or incomplete information can create problems long after the driver starts working.

A structured onboarding process helps you identify missing documents early, maintain accurate driver records, and keep your fleet prepared for inspections and audits.

Do not treat compliance paperwork as something to finish after the driver is already on the road.

Start with the right documentation from day one.

Qualified Driver. Complete Records. Ready for the Road.
