    The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is considering an application from DISA Entertainment Compliance Solutions (DECS) to renew its exemption from the rule that requires a full query of the Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse before hiring commercial drivers. Instead, DECS would perform a limited query first, which only checks if there is information about the driver in the system without revealing specific details. If something is flagged, a full query is necessary before the driver can be hired for jobs at entertainment production sites. Public comments on this renewal application are requested by April 24, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is deciding if a company called DECS should be allowed to do a quick check, instead of a full check, to see if bus and truck drivers have problems with drugs or alcohol before they are hired. This helps speed things up, but if there’s a hint of a problem, a bigger check is needed before the driver can start work.

    The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has denied Waymo LLC and Aurora Operations, Inc.'s application for an exemption from certain safety regulations related to Commercial Motor Vehicles (CMVs) operated by Level 4 Automated Driving Systems. The companies sought to use "Cab-Mounted Warning Beacons" as an alternative to the traditional warning devices required when a CMV is stopped on the highway. Although public comments showed some support, the FMCSA decided that the proposed beacons did not demonstrate an equivalent or greater level of safety. The application was too vague and lacked necessary details and data to justify a nationwide exemption for all autonomous CMV operators.

    Simple Explanation

    The government said "no" to Waymo and Aurora's idea to use special lights on their self-driving trucks because they weren't sure the lights would be safe enough. They wanted more details and tests to prove that these new lights would be just as good as the old ones for keeping everyone safe on the road.
