Entry-Level Driver Training

The FMCSA has issued a final rule (Minimum Training Requirements for Entry-Level Commercial Motor Vehicle Operators), requiring training for entry level-drivers who are subject to the commercial driver’s license (CDL) requirements.

The training must include instruction in the following four areas:

  • Driver qualification
  • Hours of service
  • Driver wellness
  • Whistleblower protection

Drivers who are required to hold a CDL and have less than one year’s experience in operating commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) in interstate commerce are subject to the training requirements.

An entry-level driver who first began operating a CMV in interstate commerce requiring a CDL between July 20, 2003, and July 20, 2004, must receive the training by Oct. 18, 2004.

An entry-level driver who will begin operating a CMV in interstate commerce on or after July 21, 2004, must receive this training before driving a CMV.
