Comments are open until April 28, 2025.

  • 2020-29062 — Hours of Service of Drivers: Proposed Regulatory Guidance Concerning the Use of a Commercial Motor Vehicle for Yard Moves
    Type:Notice
    Citation:86 FR 179
    Reading Time:about 10 minutes

    The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is proposing a new guideline to help commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers know when to record their vehicle operations as "yard moves." This change aims to clarify that movements of CMVs on private property or in restricted areas can be logged as "on-duty not driving" time. The FMCSA is asking the public for comments on these proposed guidelines, which also give examples of what are considered yards, such as intermodal yards, port facilities, and private parking lots. Comments are welcomed until February 3, 2021, to help finalize and clarify these guidelines.

    Simple Explanation

    The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration wants to make rules so truck drivers know when they can label moving their trucks around a parking lot or private area as "work but not driving." They want people to share what they think about these ideas on how to tell if a place is a "yard" until February 3, 2021.
