Are motorcoach operators and drivers required to comply with the new rule?
No. Motorcoach operators and drivers will continue to operate under the “old” hours-of-service rules that provide for an 8-hour off-duty period, no driving after 15 hours on-duty, and a 10-hour driving limit. FMCSA may reconsider its decision following completion of research assessing the unique characteristics of motorcoach operations.
