A school group sent their trip balance to the wrong account after an email from us. What happened?▼
Most likely a sales or billing mailbox was compromised, or someone registered a domain that looks like yours and slipped into the conversation. Contact the group's bank right away about a recall, and call us to check your mailboxes for unauthorized access and hidden forwarding rules. Your counsel should guide any notification decisions. Afterward, we add strong MFA and impersonation protection, and help you put a short payment policy on every quote and invoice so group leaders know to call before paying anything unusual.
How should we store driver qualification files and testing records?▼
Restricted, organized and backed up. Driver qualification files, medical certificates, drug and alcohol testing results and Clearinghouse records contain sensitive personal data and need to be available when FMCSA or an auditor asks. Many carriers keep them in a shared folder or a filing cabinet. We move them into storage where only safety staff have access, every file has version history, access is logged and backups run off-site. Your safety manager and counsel decide what goes in each file and how long it stays; we keep it secure.
Can you manage our ELDs and telematics?▼
We manage the accounts, integrations and devices around them, not the in-vehicle hardware itself. That means individual logins with MFA for your telematics portals, connections to your dispatch platform where the vendors support it, and driver tablets enrolled in device management. When ELDs stop reporting or an integration breaks, we work with the vendor to sort out whether it's the device, the cellular connection or the software. Hours-of-service decisions and logs belong to your safety team.
Is passenger Wi-Fi a security risk for us?▼
It can be if it shares anything with your business systems. Passengers connect unknown devices, and some will misbehave. The onboard router should put riders on an isolated network with no path to driver tablets, telematics or anything back at the office. We work with your onboard Wi-Fi provider on that separation, set content filtering to fit your customers and policies, and watch data usage so a single passenger streaming all trip doesn't blow through the plan for the whole fleet.
Do accessibility rules affect our booking systems?▼
They can. Over-the-road bus operators have accessibility obligations under the ADA rules in 49 CFR Part 37, including handling advance requests for accessible service and keeping related records. Your booking system and staff workflow need to capture those requests reliably and keep the documentation. We make sure the platform, forms and email paths that receive those requests are dependable and that records are retained and backed up. Your compliance lead and counsel should confirm exactly what you need to track and report.
We also run airport and corporate shuttles. Does that change anything?▼
Somewhat. Contract shuttle work often comes with client security questionnaires, reporting requirements and sometimes integrations with the client's systems or badge processes. Riders may be employees whose names and schedules show up in manifests. We help you answer those questionnaires accurately, keep shuttle data separate from charter customers where needed, and protect the reports you send each client. Driver devices and dispatch stay on the same managed setup, so adding a new shuttle contract doesn't mean a new set of IT problems.
