Title: ●Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations; Technical Amendment | |
Abstract: This action makes technical amendments to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations to update the rules concerning qualifications of drivers who have loss or impairment of limbs by changing the designated official who authorizes and signs the skill performance evaluation (SPE) certificate for such drivers and to remove the reference to "waiver." These amendments are necessitated by an agency organizational restructuring and by changes in the statute. Also, the name of the national program "Handicapped Driver Waiver Program," as it is now known, will be changed to the "SPE Certification Program for Loss or Impairment of Limbs." | |
