FMCSA Extends Comment Period For ELD Implementation

摘要

It's only a matter of time before the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) dials up a final deadline for trucking companies and drivers to deploy electronic logging devices-an Hours-of-Service regulation requirement. The FMCSA initially floated October 2015 as a target date, but that will likely be pushed out to 2016 or 2017. The Commercial Vehicle Alliance recently asked the FMCSA to extend the comment period until late summer 2014. The effective enforcement date will be two years after publication of the final rule.
