Summary of Issue

The current OOSC does not give adequate consideration to the occasion of a driver who, when inspected, fails to have in his possession RODS that he was required to prepare for one day of the previous seven. The presence/absence of that one day does not allow the inspector to determine compliance with HOS restrictions, yet drivers are being placed OOS for failing to possess it.

Justification or Need

Possession of RODS

Request for Action

Propose revising the OOSC Part I, 9 (a) (5)
