No More Junk Mail for Truckers: States Call the Shots on Forms
Published Date: 5/30/2025
Proposed Rule
Summary
FMCSA wants to make life easier for truck and equipment companies by only making them send back inspection forms to States that actually ask for them. This change cuts out extra paperwork and hassle, saving time and effort. It’s a smart update that kicks in once States confirm they want the forms, so no more wasted trips for anyone!

Cutting Unneeded Inspection Paperwork
If you run a motor carrier or intermodal equipment business, you would only need to sign and return a completed roadside inspection form to State agencies that request it. This proposed change removes the requirement to send forms back to States that do not ask for them, which reduces unnecessary paperwork and time spent on returns.
