General Notice: Qualification of Drivers; Exemption Applications; Diabetes


Federal Register: 70FR 1501
 
Publication Date: 1/7/2005

Action:

Notice of denials

Summary:

The FMCSA announces its denial of 8 applications from individuals who requested an exemption from the Federal diabetes standard applicable to interstate truck drivers and the reasons for the denials. The FMCSA has statutory authority to exempt individuals from the diabetes standard if the exemptions granted will not compromise safety. The agency has concluded that granting these exemptions would not provide a level of safety that will equal or exceed the level of safety maintained without the exemptions for these commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers.
