FMCSA Sends HOS Rule to White House

Posted on November 2, 2008 by Morgan Adams

I have discussed the hours of service regulations extensively in prior posts. It is my position, and I believe most non-industry safety professional that drivers are on the road too many hours of the day, resulting in needless and preventable accidents.

The FMCSA has sent the new HOS rule to the White House for review. While it typically uses the 90 days alloted to it to make a decision (which would have the decision out Jan 19th, one day before the next president is sworn in), the White House has promised to expedite matters and have a decision out this year.
