Course Length: 12 Minutes English/16 Minutes Spanish

Video Runtime: 9:51 English/14:22 Spanish

Overview: Carriers with drivers who require a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) need driver supervisors who are trained on alcohol misuse and drug use. They must be familiar with signs of probable misuse. This is an important first step in keeping unsafe, impaired drivers off the road. The Reasonable Suspicion Training curriculum is designed to help learners understand when a driver may be sent for testing and what to do after testing is required.

Only certain types of drivers fall under the federal rules for drug and alcohol testing. It's important to know which drivers can be sent for testing and the types of activities that make CDL drivers eligible for testing. Driver supervisors should also be aware of the backups in place for proper shift and location coverage.
