Chad Johnson is a Certified Director of Safety with 21 years in transportation and 14 years leading operations and safety. His background spans petroleum and hazardous-materials transportation, carrier startups, and large fleet safety programs. He understands the pressure of keeping trucks moving while maintaining driver, equipment, and workplace compliance.

At PassPro, Chad applies that experience to driver qualification reviews, mock audits, hazmat and driver training, incident investigations, and the procedures behind daily fleet decisions. His work connects the regulatory requirement to the records, responsibilities, and corrective action a carrier needs to demonstrate.

Chad serves on the board of the Houston Council of Safety Professionals. His approach is direct: identify the concern, explain what needs attention, and help the fleet build a process its people can use.

MEET PASSPRO

The records. The equipment.
The people behind the work.

A 90-second introduction to our services and the experience Chad Johnson and Henry Vargas bring to your operation.

Read the video transcript

DOT compliance starts with how you operate, what the regulations require, and whether your records support it.

A driver qualification file needs more than an application. Hours-of-service records need to agree with supporting documents. When an inspection identifies a defect, the follow-up needs to show how you addressed it.

At PassPro, we review driver files, hours of service, drug and alcohol programs, and maintenance records. We provide mock audits, private inspection-readiness reviews, and training for intermodal, petroleum, and hazmat operations.

When we identify a problem, we explain the applicable requirement, the correction needed, and the documentation that supports it. You get an agreed scope and written findings.

Henry Vargas brings more than twenty years in intermodal operations and safety, with leadership in the Texas Trucking Association’s Safety Management Council.

Chad Johnson, Certified Director of Safety, brings twenty-one years in transportation and fourteen years leading operations and safety. He also serves on the board of the Houston Council of Safety Professionals.
