Truck Tester Keeps Rolling Without Full CDL Thanks to Exemption

Published Date: 4/21/2025

Notice

Summary

The FMCSA is renewing a special exemption for International Motors, formerly Navistar, so their top test driver, Thomas Nickels, can keep driving test trucks on U.S. roads without a regular commercial driver’s license. This lets them safely test new vehicles while following the rules, with no extra costs or deadlines for the public. It’s a win for innovation and safety in truck testing!
