Who Should Take This Course

FMCSA requires reasonable suspicion training for supervisors of CDL drivers, including:

Safety Managers
Fleet Managers
Operations Supervisors
Driver Managers / Dispatch Leads
HR / Compliance Leads
Owners / General Managers

Why Compliance Matters

  • Supervisors must complete §382.603 training—missing it can trigger FMCSA findings and civil penalties.
  • Failure to act on observable impairment risks crashes, liability, and negligent-retention claims.
  • Proper observation, documentation, and timely testing protect drivers, the public, and your company’s safety rating.

Learning Objectives

Recognize indicators: Identify specific, contemporaneous signs of alcohol or drug misuse (appearance, behavior, speech, odors) per FMCSA §382.603.
Document correctly: Record objective observations (who/what/when) in a defensible, audit-ready manner.
Act decisively: Remove the driver from duty and initiate the appropriate test in line with company policy and FMCSA rules.
