FMCSA is advancing two Hours of Service pilot programs designed to evaluate whether greater scheduling flexibility for truck drivers can maintain or improve safety.
Recent pre-tests of the Flexible-Sleeper Berth and Split Duty Period pilots are helping FMCSA refine the programs ahead of full implementation in 2027.
Each pilot is expected to include 256 professional drivers.
