The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's (FMCSA) new CDL requirement, set to take effect on Monday, could have significant implications for safety and trucking capacity, affecting nearly 200,000 drivers. This rule, known as Clearinghouse II, mandates that drivers with drug or alcohol violations be barred from driving until they complete a return-to-duty process. The success of this implementation largely hinges on how individual states manage the downgrading process of affected drivers, leading to concerns about potential impacts on freight availability and overall trucking operations.
