View Rule

This rulemaking would propose changes to eliminate a requirement that drivers operating commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) in interstate commerce prepare and submit a list of their convictions for traffic violations to their employers annually. This requirement is largely duplicative of a separate provision that requires each motor carrier to make an annual inquiry to obtain the motor vehicle record (MVR) for each driver it employs from every State in which the driver holds or has held a CMV operator's license or permit in the past year. FMCSA expects that removing the requirement would reduce the paperwork burden on drivers and motor carriers without adversely affecting CMV safety.
