Guidance: Section 390.3T(f)(2) specifically exempts transportation performed by the Federal Government, a State, or any political subdivision of a State from the FMCSRs. However, this exemption does not apply to the CDL requirements in part 383 or the insurance requirements in Part 387. Also, if governmental entities engage in interstate charter transportation of passengers, they must comply with accident report retention requirements of part 390.
