Zero Base Review of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs); Critical Regulatory Issues Being Researched

Résumé

The FHWA is providing a listing of critical regulatory issues to be researched under the second phase of its zero base regulatory review. These regulatory issues, framed as questions, resulted from a series of public hearings held throughout the country during late 1992 and early 1993. The hearings were held to obtain information, views, opinions, and recommendations on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) from representatives of the motor carrier industry, the insurance industry, enforcement personnel, universities, and other interested parties. The FHWA will be conducting a comprehensive literature search to identify completed or existing research studies that will provide insight on these critical issues. The FHWA is seeking information from individuals and organizations who may have conducted research that addresses the issues provided in this notice, who know about research that has been conducted, or who can identify others who have completed or are in the process of completing research.
