| Summary of Issue | In the Out of Service criteria violation 392.9(a)(2) is under equipment. However, in the fed regs it is listed as a driver violation. |
| Justification or Need | A note in the OOS criteria indicating that this specific violation should be enforced as an equipment violation instead of a driver violation would clear up a lot of confusion. It should be equipment as a driver can walk away, a new driver can take over and technically not be out of service/ required to secure the dunnage that originally was unsecure unless the new driver is then inspected. |
| Request for Action | Add a note in the OOS criteria indicating that 392.9(a)(2) should be enforced as equipment instead of a driver violation. |
