Abstract:
The forms above are used by for-hire motor carriers, freight forwarders and brokers to meet the statutory requirement to submit evidence of financial responsibility prior to their registration by the FMCSA as condition for continuation of their registration. This revision is due to a supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM)entitled, " Unified Registration System," that would add the requirement for exempt for-hire motor carriers and private interstate motor carriers of hazardous materials (private interstate hazmat carriers) to file proof of liability insurance with FMCSA.
