Fix Your Safety Record with Trusted DataQ Support
Protect Your Safety Record with Expert DataQ Dispute Assistance
Data Q
Mistakes in your FMCSA safety record can harm your reputation and hurt your business. If you’re a trucking company or commercial driver, you already know how important your CSA (Compliance, Safety, Accountability) score is. But what happens when an inspection report or crash record is incorrect?
That’s where DataQ comes in.
The FMCSA DataQ system allows motor carriers and drivers to submit a request for data review when they believe information in their safety record is wrong. These errors can come from inspections, violations, crash reports, or other federal and state data. At Interstate Compliance Group, we provide full FMCSA DataQ assistance to make sure your safety record is accurate and fair.
What is the FMCSA DataQ System?
The DataQs system was created by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) to help fix errors that affect a driver or carrier’s safety record. If your company was involved in a crash, cited during a roadside inspection, or assigned a violation incorrectly, you can challenge that information through DataQ.
Even a single incorrect violation, crash, or inspection entry can lower your accountability CSA score and lead to unwanted audits or lost contracts. In some cases, errors might be assigned to the wrong DOT numbers, or a crash may not meet crash reportability standards.
How We Help with DataQ Requests
Our team handles everything for you—from start to finish. Here’s what we do:
- Review your safety record to spot inaccurate data
- Collect and prepare documents that support your case
- Submit the request for data review through the FMCSA DataQ portal
- Communicate with state and federal agencies on your behalf
- Follow up until a decision is made
- Track ongoing issues and offer ongoing technical support if needed
We’ve helped hundreds of clients clean up records involving commercial motor vehicles, crash reports, and even issues related to the Alcohol Clearinghouse.
Why It Matters
Having incorrect information in your safety file can lead to serious consequences. Lower CSA scores mean higher insurance premiums and fewer contract opportunities. Some violations could even affect your standing with brokers or shippers.
Worse yet, if the FMCSA sees too many red flags on your profile, they may schedule a safety regulation audit—or worse, place your operations under review. That’s why getting expert help with DataQ submissions is so important.
Violations Dispute Management
We assist in identifying and disputing any incorrect violations or citations that may have been added to your CSA score, ensuring that your safety record accurately reflects your compliance efforts.
Crash Data Review and Dispute
If your fleet has been involved in a crash that is inaccurately recorded or incorrectly attributed, we help gather the necessary evidence to dispute the data and correct your record.
Inspection Report Disputes
We review inspection reports for inaccuracies and work with you to challenge any findings that are incorrect, helping to prevent unjust penalties or negative impacts on your safety score.
Document Preparation and Submission
We handle all aspects of the DataQ process, including gathering supporting documents, preparing your dispute case, and submitting it through the DataQ system on your behalf.
Ongoing Monitoring and Support
We provide ongoing support to monitor your safety record, quickly identifying any new issues that may arise and addressing them before they become bigger problems.
