FMCSA Extends CDL Waivers To September 30, 2020
June 22, 2020
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has extended a waiver for CDLs/non-CDL commercial driver licenses and Medical Cards set to expire on or after March 1, 2020 until September 30, 2020.
This waiver is effective from July 1, 2020 to September 30, 2020 and provides important relief resulting from situations where many CDL and CLP holders are unable to renew their CDLs and CLPs, and/or are unable to provide medical certificates to their State Driver Licensing Agencies.
In addition, many medical providers nationwide have not provided for the scheduling of appointments in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, drivers remain unable to obtain appointments for physical examinations with medical examiners.
