FMCSA Delists 12+ Noncompliant ELDs: Drivers Have 60 Days to Switch
Key Details The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration removed more than a dozen electronic logging devices from its registered list on May 20 for failing to meet federal requirements. Motor carriers and drivers currently using these revoked ELDs must replace them within 60 days to remain compliant. Why It Matters Continuing to use a delisted ELD after the deadline violates 49 CFR 395.8(a)(1) and can result in out-of-service citations from safety inspectors. Drivers face potential OOS status in accordance with Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance criteria if their carrier doesn't upgrade in time. What You Need to Do Check FMCSA's Revoked Devices list immediately to confirm whether your ELD is affected. Contact your ELD provider to confirm compliance status or begin the transition to an approved alternative device now. Next Steps FMCSA noted that ELD providers can petition for reinstatement if they correct identified deficiencies, but the agency strongly encourages carriers not to wait. Taking action now protects your operation from compliance violations and potential roadside enforcement actions.
