Abstract

FMCSA proposes to amend the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations to remove the grandfathering provision under the physical qualifications standards for interstate drivers operating under the previously administered vision waiver study program, as this regulation is now obsolete. The waiver study program was terminated prior to the adoption of rules in 1998 implementing the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century provision concerning waivers, exemptions and pilot programs.
