FMCSA revokes 12 electronic logging devices for failing federal compliance requirements
Key takeaways
- FMCSA removed 12 ELDs from its registered list for failing federal compliance requirements under 49 CFR Part 395.
- Motor carriers have 60 days to replace revoked ELDs or risk operating without compliant devices.
- Starting July 20, use of revoked ELDs may result in out-of-service violations for drivers during roadside inspections.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) recently removed 12 electronic logging devices (ELDs) from its list of registered devices:
- 888 ELD
- Dragon ELD
- Action ELD
- Mondo ELD HOS
- First ELD
- First ELD V2.0
- MTL ELD
- USPower ELD
- Sam Freight ELD
- DSGELOGS
- Cobra ELD
- GT USA ELOGS
FMCSA placed these ELDs on the revoked devices list because the companies failed to meet the minimum requirements established in Title 49 CFR Appendix A to Subpart B of Part 395. The removal took place May 20.
Motor carriers have up to 60 days to replace the revoked ELDs with ones that are compliant. If the ELD providers correct all identified device deficiencies, FMCSA will place the ELDs back on the list of registered devices and inform the industry of the update.
Beginning July 20, motor carriers that continue using the revoked devices listed above will be considered operating without an ELD. Safety officials who encounter a driver using a revoked device on or after July 20 will place the driver out of service.
FMCSA encourages motor carriers to take the above actions to avoid compliance issues if the ELD providers do not address the deficiency.
