Video Summary

This webinar was hosted by Daniel Fisher, AAD's Vice President of Government Affairs, and featured two officials from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. The presenters discussed the implementation of the electronic logging device (ELD) rule and the exemptions that apply to certain drivers and carriers. They explained that the ELD mandate was implemented to improve commercial motor vehicle safety and reduce paperwork. They discussed the exemptions for drivers who operate within a 100 or 150 air mile radius, drivers who operate using the time card exception, and drivers who conduct drive-away and tow-away operations. The presenters also covered the different phases of the ELD implementation process, and the driver and carrier responsibilities when it comes to using an ELD. They emphasized the importance of choosing a certified and registered ELD, and provided information on how to handle ELD malfunctions and edit ELD data. The webinar concluded with a reminder that the FMCSA website provides comprehensive information on ELDs and the related regulations.
