TECHNO-REGULATIONS * USA - House Panel Approves Auto-Safety Bill
House panel approved: Cars be equipped with advanced-brake systems, "black box" data recorders and others
Washington,DC,USA -The Wall Street Journal, by JOSH MITCHELL -May 26, 2010: -- A U.S. House panel approved a far-reaching auto-safety bill Wednesday, requiring that all cars be equipped with advanced-brake systems, "black box" data recorders and other technology in the next few years... The Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 2010, approved by a 31-21 vote of the House Energy and Commerce Committee largely on the support of Democrats, would also strengthen federal regulators' ability to force recalls of defective vehicles and impose larger civil fines against car companies that fail to report safety defects... The move sets up a full House vote that could come in weeks... (Photo from technocars.com.lb)
* USA - OOIDA takes ‘black box’ rule to court
Grain Valley,MO,USA -Land Line Magazine -June 4, 2010: -- The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association filed kickoff paperwork for a legal challenge of the impending electronic on-board recorder regulation... The Association and three members filed a petition for review with the United State Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit on June 3... The final rule under challenge mandates that motor carriers with a 10 percent or greater occurrence of non-compliance with hours of service regulations in a single compliance review will be subject to mandated use of the electronic devices for two years... The agency, in fact, has kept a broader EOBR mandate on its regulatory agenda and reiterated its intention to move forward by the end of the year in recent regulatory guidance issued by the agency on hours-of-service supporting document requirements..
