Truck Inspectors Seek Exemption Renewal: IANA Pushes for Flexibility
Published Date: 7/1/2025
Notice
Summary
The Intermodal Association of North America (IANA) wants to keep its special exemption that lets trained inspectors check trucks and brakes without following some usual federal rules. This affects people who inspect and fix big trucks carrying containers, helping them keep things moving smoothly. The current exemption ends August 18, 2025, so the agency is asking for public thoughts before deciding to renew it.

IANA-trained Inspectors Keep Qualification Rights
The Intermodal Association of North America (IANA) applied to renew an exemption that lets people who complete a training program consistent with IANA's Intermodal Recommended Practices (IRPs) be treated as qualified periodic inspectors and qualified brake inspectors under Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations. The current exemption was first granted August 18, 2020, and expires August 18, 2025, and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is requesting public comment before deciding whether to renew it.
