Frequently Asked Questions

DQ Files & Driver Recruiting, Answered

What is a DQ (Driver Qualification) file?
A Driver Qualification file is the set of records the FMCSA requires you to keep for each CDL driver — including their DOT-compliant application, motor vehicle record and annual review, CDL copy, and previous-employer checks.
Do Owner Operators need to fill out a driver application?
Yes. The FMCSA requires an employment application on file even for Owner Operators (49 CFR 391.21). DriverPipe gives you a DOT-compliant application so you can collect it digitally.
How does previous employer verification work?
DriverPipe lets you request verification by email, with live status updates, so you can verify previous CMV employment for the last 3 years and document your good-faith efforts. All included in the DQ File Export.
Is DriverPipe DOT and FMCSA compliant?
The application forms and DQ file structure are built around FMCSA driver qualification requirements. You stay in control of the records, and DriverPipe keeps them organized and export-ready for audits.
Is DriverPipe built for small carriers?
Yes. There's no enterprise pricing or bloated setup — it's designed for small to mid-sized carriers who want driver recruiting and DQ file management in one simple place. No lengthy onboarding needed.
Are there any long-term contracts?
No. DriverPipe is month-to-month — you pay by credit card and can cancel anytime. No long contracts and no setup fees.
How quickly can I start collecting driver applications?
After a short setup, you get your own company application links to share, include in job posts, or embed on your site, so you can start receiving applicants the same day.
