Anyone with an account can enter an RDR into DataQs.

There are two ways to start your request:

• On the DataQs homepage: click the Start a New Request button.
• On My DataQs: under Start a New Request header, select your request category and click the Start Request button.

You will be brought through a series of screens, which may vary slightly based on the type of request you are entering. For example, Crash, Inspection, Investigation, or Audit will require you to search for a record before entering request details.

When the request is loaded into DataQs, an acknowledgement is generated. The request is then forwarded to an organization for research, and email notifications are sent to State and FMCSA-selected individuals within their organizations.
