Mitigate Risk and Improve CMV Regulatory Compliance
Fleet compliance starts with a strong, structured strategy. Wheels helps design and manage a comprehensive CMV compliance program aligned with DOT and FMCSA regulations, covering both driver and vehicle requirements. From qualification tracking to fuel tax and CSA monitoring, we provide centralized oversight, expert guidance, and proactive management to reduce risk, improve adherence, and keep your fleet operating safely and legally across all jurisdictions.
Driver Compliance Management
We manage driver qualification files, electronic logging, hours-of-service compliance, drug and alcohol programs, and DVIRs. This ensures drivers meet regulatory requirements, reduces audit risk, and maintains consistent compliance across your entire fleet.

Wheels handles fuel tax reporting, mileage and weigh permits, vehicle registrations, and annual use taxes. Our structured approach ensures every vehicle meets jurisdictional requirements while minimizing administrative burden and compliance gaps.
CSA Monitoring & Regulatory Support
We monitor CSA scores and manage key DOT and FMCSA requirements, providing guidance and escalation support when needed. As your central compliance partner, Wheels helps navigate complex regulations and maintain audit readiness.
