FMCSA is monitoring the list, though, to "ensure that an adequate number are registered" by May 21, Padilla said. OOIDA said the current number of examiners does not suffice for the number of drivers needing medical certification each year. "Many drivers will simply be unable to find registered examiners to certify them before their prior certifica- tion expires," according to OOIDA's petition. "This will cause interruptions in their employability, frustrate their ability to conduct their businesses, and do damage to their relationship with their employer or other trans- portation partners who rely upon them." OOIDA also pointed to longer appointment wait times and the need to travel farther to find an examiner as other potential problems. — James Jaillet AN APRIL 10 ACCIDENT near Orland, Calif., is being investigated by the National Transportation Safety Board.
