Driver Qualification Files (DQF) Management Service
Transporation Compliance Associates (TCA) can help with managing driver qualification files (DQF) for your company. A driver qualification file (DQF) is the collection of records used to verify that a commercial driver is properly licensed, medically qualified and eligible to operate a commercial vehicle under FMCSA regulations in 49 CFR §391.51. Drivers who operate vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating over 10,001 pounds, transporting passengers or hauling hazardous materials must adhere to the DOT requirements for drivers.
