Every motor carrier needs a written driver safety manual — it's what an auditor asks for, what your insurer expects, and what sets the rules your drivers are held to. Most carriers either don't have one or are working from a decade-old template that no longer matches the FMCSA rules. The Driver Safety Manual Builder walks you through it: answer plain questions about your fleet, and it assembles a complete, professionally-written manual with your company name on every page. No consultant fees, no starting from a blank document.
Core safety policies, driver responsibilities, and operating rules assembled around your fleet — the FMCSA-aligned foundation every carrier needs on file.
A DOT/Part 40-aware drug and alcohol testing policy your drivers acknowledge — one of the first documents an auditor asks to see.
A structured return-to-work process so an injured driver's path back is documented, consistent, and defensible.
Modified-duty and light-duty program language that keeps drivers productive and your workers-comp exposure down.
Your company name and logo on every page — it reads like you paid a firm to write it, because the policy language was written by safety practitioners.
Publish and download a finished manual as Word or PDF, ready to hand to drivers, an auditor, or your insurer.
Tell the builder about your operation — fleet type, driver count, the programs you run. No compliance expertise needed.

A driver safety manual (or driver handbook) is the written document that sets the safety policies, rules, and expectations for your drivers. For a DOT-regulated motor carrier it's a core compliance record — an auditor and your insurer both expect one on file, and it's the basis for holding drivers accountable.
The builder uses policy language written by safety practitioners to align with current FMCSA and DOT expectations, including Part 40 drug & alcohol testing. It gives you a strong, defensible foundation; for a formal compliance review of your specific operation, Synergy Safety Group offers consulting services.
You can start building for free. Publishing one manual is a one-time $129. Premium — which unlocks unlimited manuals, saved/recallable published manuals, the drug & alcohol policy, return-to-work and modified light-duty programs, and the ability to add and update policies anytime — is $39/month or $348/year (save $120). Current Synergy compliance and safety clients get premium at no cost.
On the single-manual plan, a published manual is locked as a final snapshot you can re-download anytime; republishing with changes is a new $129. On premium, your manuals stay fully editable and you can update or add policies whenever you need.
Finished manuals export as Microsoft Word and PDF, ready to distribute to drivers, hand to an auditor, or send to your insurer.
Yes — sign in with Google or an emailed code so your manuals are saved to you and only you can pull them back up. Premium subscribers can save and recall every manual they've published.
