This safety video program on Drug and Alcohol Testing for CDL Drivers discusses the drug and alcohol testing requirement, how the requirement affects transportation employees, reviews the testing process itself, what happens if a driver tests positive for a substance, and how to get help for a drug or alcohol problem.
Everyone knows that alcohol, drugs, and driving don’t mix. Yet drivers who are “under the influence” are still a major cause of accidents. To help ensure that drivers of commercial vehicles stay drug- and alcohol-free behind the wheel, the Federal Transportation Employee Testing Act requires motor carriers to establish rigorous drug and alcohol testing programs.
Areas covered in the safety video program include:
- DOT and FMCSA drug and alcohol regulations,
- drug and alcohol testing basics,
- how drug and alcohol tests are conducted,
- removal and return-to-duty for CDL drivers,
- substance abuse and how to get help, and more.
The safety video program comes with a quiz, a scheduling and attendance form, a training certificate, and an employee training log.
Associated Regulations:
- 49 CFR Part 199 – Drug and Alcohol Testing
