While the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration\u2019s (FMCSA) electronic logging device (ELD) mandate has been in effect since December 2017, not everyone is compliant yet. Drivers operating a vehicle equipped with an automatic onboard recording device (AOBRD) have until December 2019 to implement an approved ELD. Many other drivers fall under exemptions as well; however, many of those exemptions are poised to or already have expired.<\/p>\n
Even so, many trucking companies and organizations sought additional exemptions or delays for full compliance for a plethora of reasons. FMCSA denied the following requests due to the petitioners failing to prove how they would meet the same level of safety provided by adhering to the ELD mandate as well as existing hours of service (HOS) regulations.<\/p>\n
