Title: Training for Entry-Level Drivers of Commercial Motor Vehicles 
Abstract: This action is in response to section 4007 of the Motor Carrier Act of 1991 (title IV of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991). The Department has initiated a rulemaking on the need to require training of all entry-level drivers of commercial motor vehicles. The agency has submitted a report to Congress (02/05/96) on the effectiveness of private sector efforts to ensure adequate training of all entry-level drivers. This report included a cost-benefit study of requiring training of entry-level drivers. Public comments have been solicited on the report. This rulemaking action is considered significant because of substantial public interest. This action has been transferred to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration under RIN 2126-AA09.
