Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance - Petition for Rulemaking

Summary: The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) is petitioning the FMCSA to amend 49 CFR § 392.4 to prohibit drivers from violating out-of-service orders issued for possession of controlled substances. They argue that the current lack of such language creates a loophole where drivers can continue operating vehicles after a substance is seized, and they propose language consistent with alcohol regulations to improve road safety.
