Ceasing Age-Based Trucking Restrictions Act
Sponsored By: Representative Rep. Mast, Brian J. [R-FL-21]
Introduced
Summary
This bill would narrow when federal commercial driver's license rules apply by excluding certain port-to-intrastate movements from being treated as interstate transportation. It would add a new section to title 49 that says cargo moved by a commercial motor vehicle from a port of entry to another place in the same State, when the cargo originated outside that State or the United States, is not interstate transportation for chapter 313 CDL requirements.
Show full summary
- Commercial drivers and carriers: Trips that move goods from a port to another location inside the same state, where the origin is outside the state or country, could be treated as intrastate and not subject to federal CDL rules. This may change which trips require a federal CDL.
- Ports and shippers: Compliance and hiring practices for short in-state moves after import may shift because some movements would fall outside federal CDL coverage.
- Federal regulators and state authorities: The change redefines which movements fall under chapter 313, narrowing federal classification of certain port-origin shipments and affecting enforcement boundaries.

New truck license rule for port trips
If enacted, the bill would treat commercial truck moves that start at a port of entry and stay inside the same state as not "interstate" for commercial driver's license rules. This applies when the shipment is part of trade that began outside the state or the United States. The change would reduce some federal CDL regulatory coverage for affected drivers and carriers and would take effect upon enactment.
