Intended Audience

Drivers of commercial motor vehicles involved in interstate commerce. A commercial motor vehicle is defined as a vehicle that:

Has a gross vehicle weight or gross vehicle weight rating, or gross combination weight or gross combination weight rating, of 10,001 pounds or more; or
Is designed or used to transport more than 15 people (including the driver); or
Is designed or used to transport between 9 and 15 passengers (including the driver) for direct compensation and is operated beyond a 75 air-mile radius (86.3 statute miles or 138.9 kilometers) from the driver's normal work-reporting location; or
Transports hazardous materials of a type and quantity which require placarding.

Note that “property-carrying” vehicle is not defined; rather, it is any commercial motor vehicle (as defined above) that does not carry passengers. Buses and other passenger- carrying vehicles must comply with the regulations as they existed before the changes were made in 2003.
