Abstract

FMCSA requests public comment on the Federation of Professional Truckers' (FOPT) application for an exemption from the electronic logging device (ELD) requirements. FOPT requests an exemption to allow professional drivers the option to record their records of duty status (RODS) manually, instead of using an ELD.
