View Rule

This action would extend the compliance date for the Entry Level Driver Training Final Rule, published December 8, 2016 (81 FR 88732). The current February 6, 2020, compliance date will not be met due to delays in developing the Training Provider Registry (TPR). The TPR is the IT system that will be used to register training providers, receive training certificate information, and transmit information on individuals who met the training requirement to State Driver Licensing Agencies (SDLAs). The exact date for the extension will be determined at a later date based on the progress of the IT solution. It is also likely that several non-substantive changes to the regulatory text will be necessary for purposes of conformity and clarification. This action would provide the SDLAs with certainty that the current compliance date will be extended, thus allowing sufficient time for necessary adjustments to States' budgeting and resource allocation priorities.
