MiX Telematics’ webinar covers ELD prep

MiX Telematics will host a free webinar on the ELD mandate on July 27 at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT. Titled “ELD: Just the Facts,” the webinar will feature John Seidl, Transportation Consultant at Integrated Risk Solutions, who will educate attendees on:

• What they need to be ELD ready
• When they need to take action to comply with the new ELD regulations
• What fleets should consider when choosing an ELD solution for their business

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) released the long-awaited ELD mandate Final Rule in December 2015, and motor carriers without a current solution in place now have until December 2017 to implement Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs). The rule, which applies to any vehicle or combination of vehicles with an actual weight and/or Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 10,001 lbs. or more, is meant to improve compliance with Hours of Service (HOS) safety rules.
