TRUCKING INDUSTRY * USA - HOS: House bill would roll back restart provisions

* DC - Measure would have GAO assess restart rule, delay provisions at least six months

Washington,DC,USA -Fleet Owner, by David Cullen -Oct. 31, 2013: -- Current HOS restart rule under fire for sapping trucking productivity... A bill that would reverse the current Hours of Service (HOS) restart for truck drivers to the pre-July 1st rule— for at least six months— has been introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives... If it became law, the HOS measure — which has been dubbed the TRUE Act— would: 
 -- Put back into effect the 34-hour restart rules that were in place before July 1, 2013 
-- Require the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to conduct an independent assessment of the methodology FMCSA used to devise the current 34-hour restart rule 
-- Prevent re-implementing the current (July 1st) 34-hour restart rule until six months after GAO submits its assessment to Congress ...
