FMCSA opens utter period on EOBR

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration on April 12 requested additional public comment on its Feb. 1 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking regarding mandatory electronic onboard recorders for commercial motor vehicle operators who must keep records of duty status.In its latest EOBR proposal and in a previous EOBR rulemaking published on April 5, 2010, FMCSA advised it is required by law to ensure that electronic devices are not used to harass CMV drivers resulting from invasion of their privacy, although they can be used by motor carriers to monitor productivity.

EOBR

FMCSA said in light of recent litigation brought by the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association challenging the agency’s treatment of driver harassment in the first EOBR rulemaking, it wants to ensure that interested parties can comment on the issue in the current EOBR rulemaking.
The first EOBR rule is a final FMCSA action and remains under review by the Seventh Circuit, but FMCSA argued the rule properly protects drivers from harassment. The agency also will continue to accept and consider comments on all other issues within the scope of the proposed rule.

Revenue of a Freight Broker

A freight broker is an individual or company that serves as a connection between another individual or company that needs shipping services and an authorized motor carrier. Though a freight broker plays an important role in the movement of cargo, the broker doesn’t function as a shipper or a carrier. Starting your own freight company can be close to impossible, especially if you don’t have any other businesses to rely on.
A freight broker does not require formal training, but for somebody who wants to go into this business with well build knowledge, there are some institutes that provide knowledge on the subject. Such an institute, like a freight broker training school, not only gives insight about the business but also provides certificates to students who successfully finish the course.

Freight Broker
A freight broker is legally a property broker, which is the term established by theFederal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), a division of the United States Department of Transportation. It describes licensed individuals or corporations that help make a shipper and an authorized motor carrier successful in the transporting of freight.If you have never been a broker, taking a good training program could prove beneficial in that it will teach you the process of finding truck freight and matching it to a truck driver.Another advantage of being a freight broker is that you can make a reasonable amount of money. It depends on how good a freight broker you are.
Manual Traning
The broker is held responsible for the freight until it is actually delivered so keep that in mind also.Becoming a freight broker is a time consuming process, but once you obtain your license you can now work as your own boss, or find job with an already established company.

How Does a Trucking Business Work?

A trucking business can be one truck with one owner, or thousands of trucks owned by one company but driven by many different drivers. It’s estimated by the United States Labor Department that a truck hauls about 70% of everything you wear, eat, use or enjoy around your home, in your school or at your job. It’s also usually a truck which takes the pieces or rare materials to make those things from suppliers to a manufacturer to a store where you buy it. So just from this brief description, you can see that making a trucking business work smoothly is quite a challenge.

Trucking Business
Trucking Business Industry
A trucking company has to pay special taxes and have special permits from the federal and state governments to operate, as well as the truck drivers having their CDLs (Commercial Driver’s License) and also any permits he or she needs, like a HazMat (Hazardous Materials) certification. Drivers who haul corrosives or other dangerous substances have to go through special classes and have that certification on their CDL before they are permitted to pull out of the trucking company yard. A trucking business may specialize in what it hauls. Some trucking businesses move people’s households, tanks and weapons for the military or heavy equipment like gigantic bulldozers and cranes. Some have armed guards aboard their trucks while taking irreplaceable art and sculptures to museums. But whether the trucking business hauls whales and porpoises or brittle china teacups, the same basic steps are always followed. Every person at a trucking business is necessary to get each load from pick-up to its destination, whether it’s the company mechanic who looks after the trucks’ engines; the dispatcher, the safety director who makes sure Hours of Service rules are followed, salespeople who find new shippers, or the file clerk who keeps track of all the paperwork for every truck and driver working for the business.

Regulation Room

We see that you have recently blogged about EOBRs and their impact on CMV drivers. Now that the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has proposed to require EOBRs for all long haulers and many short haulers, we hope you’ll ask your readers to tell FMSCA what they should do to get this rule right. There’s an easy way to learn about the proposal and lend your expertise to the rulemaking process at http://regulationroom.org/

Regulation Room is an online public participation website where individuals and groups can learn about and discuss proposed new federal regulations. Most important, unlike other blogs and discussion forums, Regulation Room discussion actually gets read by agency decision-makers because we submit a detailed summary of all the comments directly to FMCSA. The Department of Transportation’s open government flagship initiative, Regulation Room is designed and operated by the Cornell e-Rulemaking Initiative (CeRI).

The EOBR rule will affect truckers more directly than anyone else, and Regulation Room offers an innovative way for them to have their voices heard effectively by FMCSA. We hope you will consider spreading the word to your audience about Regulation Room and the unique opportunity it offers them to get their on-the-job expertise into the final rule. The more input we receive, the better the chance that the final regulation will reflect the concerns of all stakeholders. For more information, visit http://regulationroom.org or email us at [email protected]

Sincerely,
The Regulation Room Team
