The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is seeking additional public comment on the potential for electric on-board recorders to be used as a harassment tool against drivers. The comment period is open through Monday, May 23.

According to the FMCSA, the agency addressed the issue of EOBRs and the potential for harassment of drivers in a rulemaking filed last year targeting “bad actor” carriers. But since then, the agency has sought to expand the scope of an EOBR requirement to nearly all heavy trucks. FMCSA wants to make sure the latest proposal also addresses the possible harassment issue with EOBRs.

FMCSA issued a notice in the Federal Register on Wednesday, April 13, seeking additional comments on the harassment issue by the May 23 deadline for the expanded EOBR notice of proposed rulemaking.
