posted by 18 Wheeler 6:58 AM

Hello, Fellow Drivers,  On 3/3/2010 I published an article about the FMCSA that they had temporarily closed their doors.  This article comes straight from the FMCSA website to update that report.  If you have trucking authority or want to get trucking authority, this is trucking industry news you will want to take note of.  Enjoy the short read and remember to be safe out there!   

Furloughed FMCSA Employees Should Return to Work on March 3, 2010

The U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is pleased to report that the Senate acted late last night to break its logjam, extending the Highway Trust Fund for another 30 days. This means that our valued employees who were placed on furlough Monday should return to work Wednesday morning.The FMCSA is very pleased to have all its employees back to work, serving the public through our mission of ensuring commercial truck and bus safety. We sincerely regret the hardship that this legislative impasse put you through.

Thank you and welcome back to the FMCSA.
