A. Legal Basis for the Rulemaking
This rule is based on the authority of
the Motor Carrier Act of 1935 and the
Motor Carrier Safety Act of 1984. The
Motor Carrier Act of 1935 provides that
‘‘The Secretary of Transportation may
prescribe requirements for (1)
qualifications and maximum hours of
service of employees of, and safety of
operation and equipment of, a motor
carrier; and, (2) qualifications and
maximum hours of service of employees
of, and standards of equipment of, a
motor private carrier, when needed to
promote safety of operation’’ (Section
31502(b) of Title 49 of the United States
Code (49 U.S.C.)).
The HOS regulations adopted in this
final rule concern the ‘‘maximum hours
of service of employees of * * * a
motor carrier’’ (49 U.S.C. 31502(b)(1))
and the ‘‘maximum hours of service of
employees of * * * a motor private
carrier’’ (49 U.S.C. 31502(b)(2)). The
adoption and enforcement of such rules
were specifically authorized by the
Motor Carrier Act of 1935. This rule
rests on that authority.
The Motor Carrier Safety Act of 1984
provides concurrent authority to
regulate drivers, motor carriers, and
vehicle equipment. It requires the
Secretary of Transportation to
‘‘prescribe regulations on commercial
motor vehicle safety. The regulations
shall prescribe minimum safety
standards for commercial motor
vehicles.’’ Although this authority is
very broad, the 1984 Act also includes
specific requirements: ‘‘At a minimum,
the regulations shall ensure that (1)
commercial motor vehicles are
maintained, equipped, loaded, and
operated safely; (2) the responsibilities
imposed on operators of commercial
motor vehicles do not impair their
ability to operate the vehicles safely; (3)
the physical condition of operators of
commercial motor vehicles is adequate
to enable them to operate the vehicles
safely; and (4) the operation of
commercial motor vehicles does not
