| theflyonthewall.com: | Department of Transportation revises hours-of-service safety rules for truckers | | U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood announced a final rule by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration that revises the hours-of-service safety requirements for commercial truck drivers. FMCSA's new HOS final rule reduces by 12 hours the maximum number of hours a truck driver can work within a week. Under the old rule, truck drivers could work on average up to 82 hours within a seven-day period. The new HOS final rule limits a driver's work week to 70 hours. In addition, truck drivers cannot drive after working eight hours without first taking a break of at least 30 minutes. The final rule retains the current 11-hour daily driving limit.
