2126-AB63 201510 The Regulatory Plan and the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 2126 Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration FMCSA 2100 Department of Transportation DOT Heavy Vehicle Speed Limiters

This joint rulemaking with NHTSA would respond to petitions from ATA and Roadsafe America to require the installation of speed limiting devices on heavy trucks. In response to the petitions, NHTSA requested public comment on the subject and received thousands of comments supporting the petitioner's request. We believe this rule would have minimal cost, as all heavy trucks already have these devices installed, although some vehicles do not have the limit set. This rule would decrease the estimated 1,115 fatal crashes annually involving vehicles with a GVWR of over 11,793.4 kg (26,000 lbs) on roads with posted speed limits of 55 mph or above.
