Hours of Service Update - Interim Final Rule
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has issued an Interim Final Rule (IFR) effective December 27, 2007. This interim rule maintains the current 11-hour driving limit within a 14-hour duty period and the 34-hour restart provision.
The FMCSA feels this IFR is necessary to prevent disruption to the industry, enforcement, and compliance once the stay expires. The FMCSA will be accepting public comment on the interim rule on or before February 15, 2008.
