WHO SHOULD PURCHASE THE JUMP START DOT COMPLIANCE PACKAGE:
PART 385 Applies - if you own or operate a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) over 10,000 lbs GVWR (or see your state's code: GVWR may start at 3,000 lbs GVW); carry 8 or more people including the driver; or haul any materials that reguire Hazardous Materials placards.
All companies or organizations, (private or for hire), that operate or control one or more Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) (see definition of Commercial Motor Vehicle in 49 CFR Parts 390.5 and 385.3).
Examples:
49 CFR Part 395 applies to all companies or organizations, (private or for hire), that operate or control one or more Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV).
49 CFR Part 383 rules apply to "intrastate, foreign or interstate CMV operators;"
49 CFR Part 382 Controlled Substances and Alcohol Use and Testing apply to every person and to all employers of such persons who operate a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) with a CDL.
49 CFR 393 Inspection, Repair and Maintenance says everyone ". . . directly concerned with the inspection or maintenance of motor vehicles shall comply and be conversant with the rules of this part."
Your state may "adopt by reference" most or all of the Federal Motor Carriers Safety Regulations (FMCSRs).
Consult 49 CFR Part 385, your current state administrative code and your legal adviser.
Special Note: The DOT is NOT the same as O.S.H.A. in two respects: 1.) DOT rules DO NOT ALLOW an "exception" for the business partner, principal or owner, self-employed driver or owner-operator. 2.) The legality of any trip is determined by "intent" on a trip-by-trip basis. If there is a DOT violation discovered during a Safety Audit or Compliance Review, you may be cited. Contact your legal adviser, if in doubt at any time about any DOT or Federal regulation.
