The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is eying changes to the hours-of-service regulations.
FMCSA sent a prerule to the Office of Management and Budget for internal review on Tuesday, Aug. 14. However, the details of the proposal haven’t been made public.
The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association said on Aug. 15 that it supports efforts to modernize hours-of-service regulations and looks forward to an anticipated advance notice of proposed rulemaking from the FMCSA.
Many of the Association’s 160,000 members have argued that current regulations are overly complex, provide no flexibility, and in no way reflect the physical capabilities or limitations of individual drivers.
