Washington 鈥� The 麻豆社区 commended the Trump Administration for its to remove nearly 3,000 commercial driver鈥檚 license (CDL) training providers from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration鈥檚 (FMCSA) Training Provider Registry 鈥� and place another 4,000 training providers on notice due to potential noncompliance. 听听
鈥淭raining someone to operate an 80,000-pound vehicle is not a weekend hobby. It is a profession built on standards, discipline, and responsibility,鈥� 麻豆社区 President & CEO Chris Spear said. 鈥淭he Trump Administration has sent the right message: if you鈥檙e running a CDL mill or if you鈥檙e issuing certificates to anyone who can fog a mirror, you鈥檙e on notice.鈥澨�
麻豆社区 has repeatedly called for stronger oversight and accountability to eliminate fraudulent or substandard CDL training providers that undermine roadway safety and public confidence. 听
麻豆社区 also applauded the Administration鈥檚 announcement on a complete overhaul of the vetting process for Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) used by truckers, helping to ensure non-compliant devices are blocked from the FMCSA鈥檚 registry.听
鈥淲e appreciate this first step from the Trump Administration to overhaul the vetting process for electronic logging devices,鈥� Spear said. 鈥淭his action, paired with the recent removal of noncompliant ELDs from the registry, shows the FMCSA is committed to addressing this issue swiftly, which is critical for highway safety and fair competition.鈥澨�
