Hours of Service of Drivers: Trailways Companies Application for Exemption

Короткий зміст

FMCSA has received an application from Trailways companies identified below ("Trailways") for an exemption from the hours-of- service (HOS) record of duty status provision in 49 CFR 395.8(c) that requires every commercial motor vehicle driver to record his or her duty status for each 24-hour period using methods prescribed in that section. FMCSA considers the request to be on behalf of all regular- route passenger carrier drivers. Trailways requests that these drivers be exempted from the requirement to enter a change in duty status on the daily log for breaks in driving time of 10 minutes or less, for the limited purpose of picking up or setting off passengers, baggage, or small express packages. Such time would not be considered a change of duty status for the purposes of 49 CFR 395.8(c). FMCSA requests public comment on Trailways' application for exemption.
