Dear CVTA Members,

The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) has taken historic action that puts the spotlight squarely on CDL mills nationwide.

Secretary Sean P. Duffy announced the removal of 3,000 commercial drivers’s license (CDL) training providers from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Training Provider Registry (TPR), because they failed to meet the minimal standards required under federal law.

The crackdown has reverberated widely, and in its recent coverage, featuring CVTA’s comments, Associated Press (AP) described this as a sweeping “nationwide review” that found roughly 44 % of the 16,000 trucking schools listed nationwide may not be in compliance.
