During the actual compliance investigation itself, there are two components: The basic review of ELD records and the review for falsification. The inspector reviews the ELD data for compliance, and requests and reviews supporting documents, such as toll receipts, fuel reports, bills of lading, pay records, and scheduling records. The auditor then provides the company with a list of which drivers’ ELD data is being requested and give the company a link to upload that data.

Compliance officers will look for drivers with a red-flag violation, with the highest percentiles in the HOS BASIC, drivers involved in crashes, drivers with the highest violation rates, drivers with poor CDLIS driving records, recently hired drivers, and the highest-paid drivers. However, those drivers are not chosen at random, nor does the fleet get to pick its most compliant drivers for the review. For off-site audits, the driver sample is much more limited – for instance, for an on-site review of a fleet with 100 drivers subject to the FMCSRs, they would have to select 11 drivers for an off-site review, only three. The formula requires them to review at least 30 records of duty status per driver. The investigator uses a set formula to determine how many drivers and ELD records will be audited, as well as which drivers and ELD records will be audited. He or she also confirms that the ELD data can be retrieved electronically and can be transmitted to the investigator, either on site into the laptop, or if it’s an off-site audit, through the portal. In the pre investigation, a safety inspector has to verify that ELDs are required by the company, and that its ELDs meet the requirements of the ELD rule. There are two elements, Osiecki explained: a pre-investigation component, and the actual investigation of the records. Courtesy Scopelitis Transportation Consulting How Are ELD Records Audited?
