[QUOTE="over9five, post: 1174517, member: 1401"] I don't think the rest of us can take the word of *one* FMSCA officer. Might work good for him in his one small area of enforcement, but what about the hundreds of other officers? I can show you by link [B]exactly[/B] who the FMSCA says is covered by the new laws. Go [URL="http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/rules-regulations/topics/hos/index.htm"]here[/URL] under "Who Must Comply". It makes no mention of CDL's, so that is immaterial. It makes no mention of crossing state lines, so that is immaterial. We [I]are[/I] involved in interstate commerce, regardless of whether or not we cross state lines. The only way a package driver would be exempt is if he drives a vehicle registered at 10,000 lbs or less. I'm not sure what the smaller cars are registered at, but at the [I]least[/I], anyone with a TP-60 would be over. I'm not dissing you Bug, but if you say package car drivers are exempt, you gotta link that to something official. [/QUOTE]
