Hours Of Service * USA
* DC - Public Citizen, FMCSA dismiss current HOS lawsuit
Washington,DC,USA -Land Line, by Jami Jones -Jan. 24, 2012: -- The latest skirmish in the hours-of-service war has drawn to a close. The parties in the latest lawsuit challenging the regulation have agreed to dismiss the lawsuit... In a joint motion to dismiss filed on Monday, Jan. 23, Public Citizen, Teamsters, Advocates for Highway Safety, Truck Safety Coalition and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration agreed to dismiss the lawsuit... But that doesn’t necessarily mean HOS is in the clear... The reason for the dismissal is that the regulation being challenged in the lawsuit no longer exists... The changes made by FMCSA – altering 34-hour restart and mandating breaks – were enough to make the current lawsuit a moot point... With the dismissal, the only course of action left for the plaintiffs to take a run at the 11th hour of driving is to file suit again...
