The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has assigned severity weights to each of about a dozen electronic logging device-related violations that are being recorded on a driver\u2019s or motor carrier\u2019s safety profile score.<\/p>\n
In a posting earlier this month on the agency\u2019s Compliance, Safety, Accountability website, FMCSA said that any of the ELD-related hours-of-service violations written up will be added to safety measurement system scores.<\/p>\n
The severity weights range from five points for not having an ELD to one point for failing to make annotations on the ELD when applicable.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs of April 1, 2018, violations related to electronic logging device regulations found during roadside inspections are being used in the SMS,\u201d the agency said in a web posting. \u201cThese violations are not being applied retroactively; violations recorded prior to April 1, 2018, will not be counted in SMS. Motor carriers that have received ELD-related violations will start to see them reflected in their HOS Compliance BASIC in early May 2018 when the next monthly SMS results are released.\u201d<\/p>\n
