What this site is

New Carrier HQ provides compliance information and educational self assessment tools for small motor carriers. It is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Using this site does not create an attorney-client relationship.

No guarantee of audit outcomes

The readiness check is a self assessment based on publicly published FMCSA audit criteria. It is not a prediction of, or a guarantee of, the outcome of any audit or investigation. Scores reflect your own answers, which we cannot verify.

Your responsibility

Compliance with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, 49 CFR Parts 300 through 399, is your responsibility as a carrier. Regulations change. Always confirm current requirements against the official text of the regulation or with qualified counsel.

Acceptable use

Do not scrape, resell, or misrepresent the content of this site, and do not use the readiness check with automated submissions. We may limit access to prevent abuse.

Limitation of liability

This site and its tools are provided as is, without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, New Carrier HQ is not liable for any loss arising from your use of, or reliance on, this site, including fines, penalties, or the loss of operating authority.
