What are DOT Regulations 

The US Department of Transportation issues regulations that employees working in various aspects of transportation must meet. This includes all modes of transportation and industries associated with transportation, including road and railway construction. Employers must ensure their employees meet the proper regulations for their specific job to be compliant with local, state, and federal regulations.

A new Federal Motor Carrier and Safety Administration (FMCSA) rule has ended the exemption program. The driver’s treating clinician is now responsible for determining if the driver’s insulin regimen is stable and his or her diabetes is properly controlled. A new form, Insulin-Treated Diabetes Mellitus Assessment Form MCSA-5870, will be required by medical examiners to issue the Medical Examiner’s Certificate (MEC).
