AGENCY:
FMCSA confirms its decision
to exempt 56 individuals from its rule
prohibiting persons with insulin-treated
diabetes mellitus (ITDM) from operating
commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) in
interstate commerce. The exemptions
enable these individuals to operate
CMVs in interstate commerce.
DATES: The exemptions were effective
on August 14, 2014. The exemptions
expire on September 15, 2016.

published in the Federal Register on
January 17, 2008 (73 FR 3316).
II. Background
On August 14, 2014, FMCSA
published a notice of receipt of Federal
diabetes exemption applications from
56 individuals and requested comments
from the public (79 FR 47702). The
public comment period closed on
September 15, 2014, and seven
comments were received.
FMCSA has evaluated the eligibility
of the 56 applicants and determined that
granting the exemptions to these
individuals would achieve a level of
safety equivalent to or greater than the
level that would be achieved by
complying with the current regulation
49 CFR 391.41(b)(3).
III. Diabetes Mellitus and Driving
Experience of the Applicants
The Agency established the current
requirement for diabetes in 1970
because several risk studies indicated
that drivers with diabetes had a higher
rate of crash involvement than the
general population. The diabetes rule
provides that ‘‘A person is physically
qualified to drive a commercial motor
vehicle if that person has no established
medical history or clinical diagnosis of
diabetes mellitus currently requiring
insulin for control’’ (49 CFR
391.41(b)(3)).
FMCSA established its diabetes
exemption program, based on the
Agency’s July 2000 study entitled ‘‘A
Report to Congress on the Feasibility of
a Program to Qualify Individuals with
Insulin-Treated Diabetes Mellitus to
Operate in Interstate Commerce as
Directed by the Transportation Act for
the 21st Century.’’ The report concluded
that a safe and practicable protocol to
allow some drivers with ITDM to
operate CMVs is feasible. The
