The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) removed 550 commercial driver’s license (CDL) training providers from its national registry after finding they failed to meet federal safety and training standards.
In a five-day nationwide operation, more than 300 investigators conducted 1,426 inspections, leading to 448 school removals, 109 voluntary closures and 97 providers remaining under investigation.
The enforcement effort is part of a broader crackdown led by Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy targeting noncompliant “CDL mills.”
The action follows earlier removals of nearly 3,000 providers and notices sent to about 4,000 schools over potential violations of the 2022 Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) standards.
The American Trucking Associations (ATA) praised the crackdown, saying it strengthens the integrity of commercial driver training and promotes roadway safety.
