The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has granted a waiver for certain commercial driver's license (CDL), commercial learner's permit (CLP), and medical-certification requirements due to the COVID-19 outbreak. The waiver will allow certain drivers to operate with an expired driver's license and/or medical card until June 30, 2020, if they were unable to renew them due to the outbreak. The waiver is effective March 20, 2020, through June 30, 2020. It applies to CDL holders, CLP holders, and other interstate drivers operating commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) during the national emergency declaration due to COVID-19.
Several states are experiencing above-normal employee absences or have closed state driver licensing agencies due to the coronavirus outbreak. As a result, many CDL and CLP holders are unable to renew their licenses and permits and are unable to provide medical certificates to their state agencies. Drivers who held a valid CDL or CLP and/or medical card as of February 29, 2020, which expired on or after March 1, 2020, may continue to drive with the expired license, permit, or certificate until June 30. Under the medical-card waiver, drivers must have proof of a valid medical certification that was issued for a period of 90 days or longer and that expired on or after March 1, 2020.
The emergency waiver applies to the following requirements from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations:
