II. Background
On April 7, 2016, FMCSA published
a notice announcing its decision to
renew exemptions for 87 individuals
from the vision requirement in 49 CFR
391.41(b)(10) to operate a CMV in
interstate commerce and requested
comments from the public (81 FR
20435). The public comment period
ended on May 9, 2016, and no
comments were received.
As stated in the previous notice,
FMCSA has evaluated the eligibility of
these applicants and determined that
renewing these exemptions 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)(10).
The physical qualification standard
for drivers regarding vision found in 49
CFR 391.41(b)(10) states that a person is
physically qualified to driver a CMV if
that person:
Has distant visual acuity of at least 20/40
(Snellen) in each eye without corrective
lenses or visual acuity separately corrected to
20/40 (Snellen) or better with corrective
lenses, distant binocular acuity of a least 20/
40 (Snellen) in both eyes with or without
corrective lenses, field of vision of at least
70° in the horizontal meridian in each eye,
and the ability to recognize the colors of
traffic signals and devices showing red,
green, and amber.
III. Discussion of Comments
FMCSA received no comments in this
preceding.
IV. Conclusion
Based upon its evaluation of the 87
renewal exemption applications and
that no comments were received,
FMCSA confirms its decision to exempt
the following drivers from the vision
requirement in 49 CFR 391.41 (b)(10),
subject to the requirements cited above:
As of April 12, 2016, and in
