FMCSA DRUG & ALCOHOL COMPLIANCE
Effective November 18, 2024, all State Driver Licensing Agencies (SDLAs) will be required to downgrade a CDL or CLP if a driver is listed as “prohibited” in the Clearinghouse due to drug or alcohol violations. This means:
✅ CDL holders with a prohibited status will have their commercial driving privileges removed until they complete the return-to-duty process.
✅ State agencies will be required to check the Clearinghouse and take action on any driver with a violation.
✅ Employers must ensure all CDL drivers remain compliant to avoid disruptions in their workforce.
What You Need to Do:
Drivers: If you have a violation, complete the FMCSA return-to-duty process as soon as possible.
Employers: Stay updated on your drivers’ Clearinghouse status to avoid operational disruptions.
Check Your Status: Visit the FMCSA Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse to ensure you are compliant.
