"I certify that this application was completed by me, and that all entries on it and information in it are true and complete to the best of my knowledge."
NOTICE TO DRIVER: The Commercial Driver's License (CDL) Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse is a federal database containing information about CDL drivers who have violated the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's (FMCSA's) drug or alcohol regulations in 49 CFR Part 382. Whether you have committed such a violation or not, each motor carrier for whom you drive is required to check whether the Clearinghouse has any information about you, both at the time of hire and annually. When conducting an annual inquiry, the motor carrier has the option to request a "limited" report that only indicates whether the Clearinghouse has any information about you. Before a motor carrier may request a limited report, they must have your written authorization, per §382.701(b). This authorization may be valid for more than one year. If a limited query ever reveals that the Clearinghouse has information about you, you will be required to log in to the Clearinghouse website within 24 hours to grant electronic consent for the motor carrier to obtain your full Clearinghouse record.
NOTICE TO MOTOR CARRIER: This consent form authorizes you to run a "limited query" to check whether the Clearinghouse has information about the driver identified below. If it does, then you must obtain a full Clearinghouse record within 24 hours, per §382.701(b). This consent form must be retained until 3 years after the date of the last limited query you perform for this driver, based on the authorization below.
AUTHORIZATION
I, , hereby authorize SUPER TRANSPORT INTERNATIONAL LTD. to conduct limited annual queries of the FMCSA’s Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse, to determine if a Clearinghouse record exists for me. This consent is valid from the date shown below until my employment with the above-named motor carrier ceases or until I am no longer subject to the drug and alcohol testing rules in 49 CFR Part 382 for the above-named motor carrier. I understand that if any limited query reveals that the Clearinghouse contains information about me, I must grant electronic consent within 24 hours, via the Clearinghouse website, for the motor carrier to obtain my full Clearinghouse record. Refusal to provide such consent will result in my removal from safety sensitive duties.
In connection with your application for employment with Super Transport International LTD (“Prospective Employer”), Prospective Employer, its employees, agents or contractors may obtain one or more reports regarding your driving, and safety inspection history from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
When the application for employment is submitted in person, if the Prospective Employer uses any information it obtains from FMCSA in a decision to not hire you or to make any other adverse employment decision regarding you, the Prospective Employer will provide you with a copy of the report upon which its decision was based and a written summary of your rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act before taking any final adverse action. If any final adverse action is taken against you based upon your driving history or safety report, the Prospective Employer will notify you that the action has been taken and that the action was based in part or in whole on this report.
When the application for employment is submitted by mail, telephone, computer, or other similar means, if the Prospective Employer uses any information it obtains from FMCSA in a decision to not hire you or to make any other adverse employment decision regarding you, the Prospective Employer must provide you within three business days of taking adverse action oral, written or electronic notification: that adverse action has been taken based in whole or in part on information obtained from FMCSA; the name, address, and the toll free telephone number of FMCSA; that the FMCSA did not make the decision to take the adverse action and is unable to provide you the specific reasons why the adverse action was taken; and that you may, upon providing proper identification, request a free copy of the report and may dispute with the FMCSA the accuracy or completeness of any information or report. If you request a copy of a driver record from the Prospective Employer who procured the report, then, within 3 business days of receiving your request, together with proper identification, the Prospective Employer must send or provide to you a copy of your report and a summary of your rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Neither the Prospective Employer nor the FMCSA contractor supplying the crash and safety information has the capability to correct any safety data that appears to be incorrect. You may challenge the accuracy of the data by submitting a request to https://dataqs.fmcsa.dot.gov. If you challenge crash or inspection information reported by a State, FMCSA cannot change or correct this data. Your request will be forwarded by the DataQs system to the appropriate State for adjudication.
Any crash or inspection in which you were involved will display on your PSP report. Since the PSP report does not report, or assign, or imply fault, it will include all Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) crashes where you were a driver or co-driver and where those crashes were reported to FMCSA, regardless of fault. Similarly, all inspections, with or without violations, appear on the PSP report. State citations associated with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) violations that have been adjudicated by a court of law will also appear, and remain, on a PSP report.
