February 2014 | Overdrive | 17 Logbook Drivers must continue to carry paper copies of their medical certification until Jan. 30, 2015. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Ad- ministration announced the one-year delay for the paper copy mandate Jan. 10 in the Federal Register. Under the same rule, drivers still were required to self-report their operating status and provide their com- mercial driver's license-issu- ing state with a valid medical certificate by Jan. 30, 2014, and that deadline was unaf- fected. A lack of readiness by some states, however, led to the delay in the date until which drivers must carry paper copies. Since Jan. 30, 2012, drivers have been required Another year for carrying copy of medical certificate to report their operating status and provide medical certificates when renewing their CDL. This was part of the FMCSA rule to combine CDLs and medical certificates so that drivers would need to carry only a single card. Drivers who do not self-report are subject to losing their CDL privileges. – James Jaillet Mid-America Trucking Show Louisville, Ky.
