Abstract
FMCSA proposes to amend the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations to rescind the in-vehicle electronic logging device (ELD) operator’s manual requirement for commercial motor vehicles (CMVs). FMCSA currently maintains a list of the ELD vendors who have self-certified their products including submission of the operator’s manual. Additionally, drivers are required to understand the operation of the ELD on the vehicle. There is no readily apparent benefit to continuing to require that the users’ manual be in the CMV. This proposal would eliminate an unintended regulatory burden on motor carriers without compromising safety.
