DOT & FMCSA compliance · for US carriers
If the DOT audited you tomorrow, could you hand over every record without scrambling?
For most carriers it's the paperwork, not the driving, that trips them up. Get audit-ready in a weekend: the training, 91 ready-to-use forms, a tracker that reminds you before anything expires — plus four field kits for audits, accidents, and your first 90 days.

Here's the part nobody warns you about.
The FMCSA doesn't need to catch you doing anything dangerous. They just ask for your records:
- A driver qualification file that was never finished
- A medical card that expired while you weren't looking
- A drug & alcohol policy you never actually wrote down
- A Clearinghouse query you didn't know you had to run
And you often find out at the worst possible time: during a new-entrant audit, after a roadside inspection, or when your insurance asks for proof. By then it can mean a citation, a conditional rating, or questions about your authority. Not because you're a bad operator, but because the paperwork wasn't ready.
What the rules put at stake
The published penalties dwarf the price of getting organized.
These are the FMCSA's own published maximum civil penalties, not our projections. For context, here is what a single recordkeeping violation can reach:
The whole program costs a small fraction of these published maximums. Getting organized now is the cheapest peace of mind you'll buy all year.
Figures are FMCSA published maximum civil penalties (49 CFR Part 386), adjusted annually for inflation; actual penalties vary and are set case by case. Informational only, not legal advice.
Everything, in one program
You don't need a compliance department. You need what they keep.
The same records the big fleets keep: organized, current, and ready, built so one person can run it. That's the whole program.

Who's behind this
Raisedash builds compliance tools for US trucking companies. This program was written and reviewed by people who do FMCSA/DOT compliance for a living, with every form tied to its regulation and the date it was last checked. It supports your compliance work; it isn't official government material or legal advice.
Common questions
Are all the bonuses really included?
Yes. The course is the program; everything else is included free: the 91-form library ($147), the deadline-tracking workbook ($97), the DOT Audit Survival Kit ($147), the New Carrier 90-Day Roadmap ($97), the Accident Response Kit ($97), and the Compliance Cheat-Sheet Pack ($47). That's $632 of tools at no extra cost, plus lifetime updates and 30 days of email answers.
What does 'lifetime updates' mean?
Regulations change, and compliance material that sits still goes stale. We track FMCSA rules year-round; when a change touches something you own, we update the affected lessons, forms, or kits and email you what changed and what to do about it. It's included free for as long as we offer the program — no renewal, no update fee.
How does '30 Days of Answers' work?
For 30 days after your purchase, you can email [email protected] with questions about setting up your compliance paperwork or using anything in the program, and a real person answers — typically within one business day. It's practical guidance about the program and the regulations it covers, not legal advice about a specific dispute.
Is this official government material?
No. FMCSA publishes the raw rules for free. What you're buying is the organization, plain-language training, ready-to-use forms, and automatic deadline tracking around them. It's designed to help you get audit-ready, not a guarantee of passing an audit.
Will this help me pass a DOT audit?
It's built to get you audit-ready: the forms are organized in the exact order an auditor reviews you, and the course walks through what they look for. Nobody can guarantee an audit result, but walking in with organized, complete records is the single biggest thing in your control.
I'm brand new / I run a larger fleet. Is this for me?
Yes. It's built for any US trucking operation that has to stay DOT-compliant, from a brand-new single-truck authority to a growing fleet. New entrants especially: getting it right from day one beats fixing it after a violation.
Do I pay every month?
No. It's a one-time payment — no subscription, no renewals. Any updates we release to the program are included at no extra charge.
How fast do I get access?
Instantly. The moment your payment clears, your account unlocks the course, the forms download, the workbook, and all four kits, with no waiting for approval.
Is anything shipped to me?
No, and that's the point: nothing to wait for. The kits are print-ready PDFs formatted for any home or office printer — the photos on this page show those actual pages printed. Ten minutes at the printer and the checklist is on your wall and a card is in every glovebox.
What if it's not for me?
The course comes with a 14-day refund: if you've completed 10 or fewer lessons, email [email protected] within 14 days of your purchase for a full refund. The forms library, workbook, and kits are instant downloads, so they aren't refundable, which is why we show real screenshots of what's inside before you buy.
What do I need to use it?
A phone or computer. The course plays in your browser, the forms open in Microsoft Word or Google Docs, the workbook runs in Google Sheets with a free Google account, and the kits are PDFs — print them on any home or office printer.
Get compliant, and stop worrying about it.
