Page 8: Webinar: Hours of Service and Electronic Logging in the Motorcoach Industry

REGULATING MOTORCOACHES

8

• Commercial vehicles over 4.5t must have a USDOT Number

• Subject to federal safety regulations.

• Officers enforce the federal rules through roadside inspections.

• 3 million inspections are performed annually.

• Companies are assigned a public safety rating (CSA score)

• Drivers must log hours of service (HOS) to comply with safety regulations.

• 80% of drivers still use the paper logbooks.

• HOS paperwork volume is the 2nd largest after tax filings. (FMCSA, 2014)

Page 9: Webinar: Hours of Service and Electronic Logging in the Motorcoach Industry

• FMCSA established the HOS regulations to keep fatigued drivers off the public roadways

• These Regulations limits the time a driver can driver, drive after working and driving and establishes minimum time periods in which a driver must be provided an opportunity to obtain rest.

9

FMCSA reports that in as many as 16% of the large truck crashes driver fatigue was either a cause or

contributing factor to the crash. (We believe these numbers are substantially overstated)
