What actions will FMCSA take to address the problem of bridge strikes?

Answer:
  • The FMCSA will work with its State and local partners to ensure they understand their enforcement authority against motor carriers and drivers that fail to abide by roadway signs
  • The FMCSA will work with its State partners and the truck and bus industries to distribute the Agency’s visor card “GPS Selection Guide for CMVs”
  • The Agency will also work with commercial driver training school associations to encourage them to include electronic navigation system selection information in their training programs.
  • FMCSA will consider electronic navigation system selection as it prepares to move forward with the entry-level driver training rule required by the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) reauthorization legislation
