The
FMCSA has issued a final rule (Minimum
Training Requirements for Entry-Level Commercial Motor Vehicle Operators),
requiring training for entry level-drivers who are subject to the commercial
driver’s license (CDL) requirements.
The training must
include instruction in the following four areas:
Drivers who are
required to hold a CDL and have less than one year’s experience
in operating commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) in interstate commerce
are subject to the training requirements.
An entry-level driver
who first began operating a CMV in interstate commerce requiring a CDL
between July 20, 2003, and July 20, 2004, must receive the training
by Oct. 18, 2004.
An entry-level driver
who will begin operating a CMV in interstate commerce on or after July
21, 2004, must receive this training before driving a CMV.

driver training requirements.
