You started a trucking company, not a records department. Roadworthy HQ keeps the driver files, drug & alcohol program, and maintenance records an auditor will ask for. From $39/month.

§01 · The workspace
The FMCSA grades on paperwork. Roadworthy HQ does the recordkeeping every CFR part actually requires, with each feature traced to a citation.
Every §391.51(b) item — application, MVR, road test, medical certificate, annual review — tracked with the right retention window.
Random pool math at the 2026 rates, pre-employment, post-accident, and return-to-duty events logged. Queries against the FMCSA Clearinghouse (the national driver drug & alcohol violations database) with the consent forms generated.
Driver vehicle inspection reports, annual inspections, and the systematic maintenance program §396.3 actually requires — kept for the period the regulation specifies.
An append-only event log, retention enforced in the database, and a one-click binder ready to upload to FMCSA's NEWS portal when the audit notice arrives.
Records have to be made available when FMCSA asks — that's what §390.31 actually requires. One-click export packaged the way an auditor expects, named for the NEWS portal, with tombstones preserved separately.
§02 · How we're different
J.J. Keller Encompass and Foley Dash are good products — for fleets ten times your size, with sales cycles and contracts to match. Roadworthy HQ sits in the middle on purpose: self-serve, one flat price, built for 1–10 trucks.

§06 · Field notes
Practical guides to the regulations small carriers actually run into. Every claim cites the CFR.
The §382.601 written policy is the document a new carrier most often skips and most reliably gets cited for. Every required element, the signed-receipt rule, the owner-operator's two hats, and what a new-entrant auditor actually checks — current as of 2026.
Read →When you can legally drive a CMV off duty, when a yard move is really a yard move, and how your own ELD's GPS trail becomes the evidence — 49 CFR §395.28, FMCSA's 2018 guidance, and what enforcement actually checks in 2026.
Read →The ELD doesn't end your hours-of-service recordkeeping — it starts it. What 49 CFR Part 395 requires beyond the device: the 6-month retention rules, the 8-documents-per-day rule, the in-cab packet, and what happens when the ELD malfunctions.
