Driving of Commercial Motor Vehicles: Use of Seat Belts; Correction

Final rule; correction.

FMCSA corrects an error in its June 7, 2016, final rule "Driving of Commercial Motor Vehicles: Use of Seat Belts."

Today's correction fixes the error such that drivers of passenger-carrying vehicles will continue to be required to wear their seat belts.
