DOT/FMCSA

RIN: 2126-AA53

Publication ID: Spring 2004

Title: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations; Interstate School Bus Safety
Abstract: This rulemaking was withdrawn. FMCSA had considered making the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) apply to all interstate school transportation operations by local educational agencies. FMCSA was to make a determination whether to make the FMCSRs applicable to such operations, as directed by section 4024 of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century. FMCSA published an ANPRM requesting comments, data, and information to assist in making this determination. FMCSA determined that the costs would have exceeded the benefits. This action was considered significant because of the interest of the public and private sectors in the possibility the rule would have expand Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations to cover government-operated school buses in interstate commerce.
