Post-accident tests
  • Employers must test commercial drivers for drugs and alcohol post-accident to comply with FMCSA regulations if specific criteria are met.

Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) post-accident drug and alcohol tests apply to commercial drivers who operate a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) requiring a commercial driver’s license (CDL).

FMCSA post-accident testing includes requirements for:

  • Tests that must be conducted,
  • The time frame under which tests must be conducted, and
  • The circumstances in which a law enforcement officer’s test result may be used in lieu of an employer’s program test results.
