Abstract

FMCSA proposes to codify the English language proficiency (ELP) driver qualification requirement as an out-of-service (OOS) violation. The rulemaking would ensure uniform enforcement by aligning the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) with the current enforcement tolerances in the North American Standard Out-of-Service Criteria. The rulemaking responds to a petition from the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA).
