NATIONAL TRUCKING LAW

The following law may apply to a Minnesota tractor trailer, or semi truck, accident or other commercial vehicle accident. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) are the rules that govern semi trucks on our highways, and have been adopted by the state of Minnesota. They include rules drivers, their employers, and owners of trucks must follow. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations that most certainly apply to any injury or death involving the negligence of a truck driver or a driver of a tractor trailer (semi truck) or perhaps other commercial vehicles can be found at: www.fmcsa.dot.gov. The federal law in its entirety can be found in Title 49 of the Federal Code.

MINNESOTA TRUCKING LAW

Minnesota tractor trailer, or semi truck accident law may be a little different than the federal law. Some of the highlights are listed below.

1. Minnesota Trucking Law that governs Minnesota semi truck accidents can be found at the following link:

Minnesota Semi Truck Laws

2. MINNESOTA SEMI TRUCK DRIVER QUALIFICATIONS:

Both federal and Minnesota state safety regulations require that Minnesota drivers of semi trucks (tractor trailers) meet certain qualifications. Each Minnesota driver employed by a motor carrier is required to have a “driver qualification file”. This file includes the driver’s application for employment, an inquiry to previous employers for the past three years employment history, an inquiry to state agencies for the past three years for a driving record, an inquiry to state agencies annually for driving records, an annual account of the driver’s certification of violations, a certificate or equivalent for the driver’s road test, and a medical examiner’s certificate which must be renewed every two years (49 CFR 391.51). Other requirements that must be met include:

1. Age:

(Minn. Stat. § 221.0314)

2. The commissioner may grant a waiver to a person who is not physically qualified to drive under Code of Federal Regulations, title 49, section 391.41, paragraph (b)(3) to (b)(13). A waiver granted under this subdivision applies to intrastate transportation only. (Minn. Stat. § 221.0314)

3. Notwithstanding subdivisions 3 and 3a, a Minnesota intrastate waiver is not required in Minnesota intrastate commerce if that person holds a valid interstate waiver or comparable document for physical qualifications described in Code of Federal Regulations, title 49, section 391.41. (Minn. Stat. § 221.0314)

3. Minnesota semi truck drivers are required to reduce speed and to take into consideration bad weather conditions. A Minnesota semi truck driver must reduce speeds for snow, ice, fog, rain, smoke, dust, or other conditions that affect visibility or traction adversely. Certain conditions make it a requirement for the Minnesota driver to stop their vehicle all together. (49 CFR § 392.14)

4. Valid Minnesota License:

   The rules for driver qualifications and hours of service of drivers do not apply to vehicles controlled by a farmer and operated by a farmer or farm employee to transport agricultural products, farm machinery, or supplies to or from a farm if the vehicle is not used in the operations of a motor carrier and not carrying hazardous materials of a type or quantity that requires the vehicle to be marked or placarded in accordance with section 221.033.
   
   The rules for driver qualifications do not apply to a driver employed by a private carrier while operating a lightweight vehicle. (Minn. Stat. § 221.031)

2. Notwithstanding the provisions of subdivision 2, private carriers engaged in intrastate commerce and operating vehicles transporting agricultural and other farm products within an area having a 50-mile radius from the business location of the private carrier must comply only with the rules for driver qualifications; driving of motor vehicles; and parts and accessories necessary for safe operation, except as provided in paragraphs (b) and (c).
   
   A rear-end dump truck or other rear-unloading truck while being used for hauling agricultural and other farm products from a place of production or on-farm storage site to a place of processing or storage, is not subject to any rule of the commissioner requiring rear-end protection, including a federal regulation adopted by reference.

7. Minnesota Driver Responsibility:

   1. Hours of Service

1. (a) No motor carrier shall permit or require any driver used by it to

drive a property-carrying commercial motor vehicle, nor shall any

such driver drive a property-carrying commercial motor vehicle:

(1) More than 11 cumulative hours following 10 consecutive hours off duty; or (2) For any period after the end of the 14th hour after coming on duty following 10 consecutive hours off duty, except when a property- carrying driver complies with the provisions of Sec. 395.1(o). (b) No motor carrier shall permit or require a driver of a property- carrying commercial motor vehicle to drive, nor shall any driver drive a property-carrying commercial motor vehicle, regardless of the number of

motor carriers using the driver's services, for any period after—(1) Having been on duty 60 hours in any 7 consecutive days if the employing motor carrier does not operate commercial motor vehicles every day of the week; or (2) Having been on duty 70 hours in any period of 8 consecutive days if the employing motor carrier operates commercial motor vehicles every day of the week. (c)(1)Any period of 7 consecutive days may end with the beginning of any off duty period of 34 or more consecutive hours; or (2) Any period of 8 consecutive days may end with the beginning of any off duty period of 34 or more consecutive hours. (49 CFR § 395.3)

1. Code of Federal Regulations, title 49, part 395, is incorporated by reference, except that paragraphs (a), (c), (d), (f), (h), (i), (k), (m), and (n) of section 395.1 and section 395.13 of that part are not incorporated. In addition, cross-references to sections or paragraphs not incorporated in this subdivision are not incorporated by reference. The requirements of Code of Federal Regulations, title 49, part 395, do not apply to drivers of lightweight vehicles. (Minn. Stat. § 221.0314)

2. The federal regulations incorporated in subdivision 9 for maximum driving and on-duty time do not apply to drivers engaged in the interstate or intrastate transportation of:
   (1) agricultural commodities or farm supplies for agricultural purposes in Minnesota during the planting and harvesting seasons from March 15 to December 15 of each year; or
   (2) sugar beets during the harvesting season for sugar beets from September 1 to May 15 of each year;
   if the transportation is limited to an area within a 100-air-mile radius from the source of the commodities or the distribution point for the farm supplies. (Minn. Stat. § 221.0314)

2. From August 1, 1992, to August 1, 1994, the rules for hours of service of drivers do not apply to a person exclusively engaged in the transportation of asphalt cement, cementitious material, fly ash, or sod, construction debris, and solid waste when transported by a transfer driver, when the transportation is provided within a radius of 100 miles from (1) the person's home post office, or (2) a highway construction or maintenance site where the asphalt cement, cementitious material, fly ash, or sod is being used. (Minn. Stat. § 221.031)

iii. The reason for these hour restrictions is to prevent driver fatigue. It has been a proven fact that driver fatigue often is a cause of interstate trucking accidents. The trucking carrier and the driver are both responsible for this type of Hours-of-Service (HOS) violation.

2. Truck Driver Logs

   1. A Minnesota tractor trailer (semi truck) driver is required to keep certain specific logs to prove that he or she has not violated these Hours-of-Service rules. The Minnesota employer or motor carrier is required to inspect the drivers’ logs to confirm compliance with these regulations. (49 CFR § 395.8)

2. Driver Logs: §395.8 involve a Minnesota semi truck driver making a record of his duty status. A Minnesota driver must keep a log of his or her status for every 24 hour period. Pursuant to Section 395.8 of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, the log is usually in written form and on a grid.

3. Because of technology, the Minnesota driver log is often kept by an on-board recording device. The log indicates when the Minnesota driver is on and off duty and whether they are driving or in the “sleeper birth”, which is usually designated as “SB”. The Minnesota motor carrier is responsible if the tractor trailer driver submits a false log. (49 CFR § 395.15)

1. There are sometimes investigations regarding whether a Minnesota tractor trailer (semi truck) driver keeps two sets of logs or books, so that he or she could driver longer than they are allowed to drive by Minnesota law.

4. The following is an example of an Hours-of-Service truck driver log with no driving violations recorded:

5. A Minnesota motor carrier (that would be the trucking company) is responsible and required to fashion or schedule their Minnesota truck driver’s runs and routes in a way that would allow Minnesota drivers to complete them without violating any speed limits or Hours-of-Service violations.

6. Minnesota tractor trailer (semi truck) drivers must follow posted speed limits. Trucks, often times, must follow a lower speed limit that drivers of cars.

3. Alcohol and Controlled Substances

i. Alcohol and drivers of Minnesota tractor trailers (semi trucks): No

trucker shall report for duty or remain on duty requiring the

performance of safety-sensitive functions while having an alcohol

concentration of 0.04 or greater. No employer having actual

knowledge that a driver has an alcohol concentration of 0.04 or greater shall permit the driver to perform or continue to perform safety-sensitive functions. This, of course, includes driving, but also when Arizona drivers are merely “on duty”, which would include even if they were not driving, but where they are in physical control of the truck. (49 CFR § 382.201)

3. No tractor trailer (semi truck) driver shall use alcohol while performing safety-sensitive functions. No employer having actual knowledge that a driver is using alcohol while performing safety-sensitive functions shall permit the driver to perform or continue to perform safety-sensitive functions. (49 CFR § 382.205)

4. No semi truck driver shall report for duty or remain on duty when it requires the performance of safety functions, when the driver has used any controlled substance. (49 CFR § 382.213)

2. Truck Equipment & Repair

1. A driver of a Minnesota tractor trailer (semi truck) must make sure that his or her truck (trailer, or cab) and its equipment are in good working order at all times. (49 CFR § 396.3(a)(1))

2. Code of Federal Regulations, title 49, part 396, is incorporated by reference, except that sections 396.9; 396.11, paragraph (d); 396.17; 396.19; 396.21; and 396.23 of that part are not incorporated. Minn. Stat. § 221.0314)

3. Title 49, Part 393 includes brakes to the tractor, brakes to the

trailer, parking brakes, steering devices, lighting devices, tires, horn, windshield wipers, rear vision mirrors, and coupling devices (a coupling device is analog shift register, that transports analog signals or electric charges).

1. STUDIES SHOW THAT BRAKE

FAILURE/DEFECTS ARE A MAJOR CAUSE IN A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF CRASHES: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) found that in 2004 there were over 400,000 big trucks that were involved in traffic crashes in the U.S. This study found that 5,190 people died and 116,000 were injured in those crashes. In 2004, one out of eight traffic fatalities were a result from a collision involving a large truck.

2. It is important for regulations to be followed so that

violations do not result in an Arizona semi truck accident. Many violations exist and will result in an accident if not inspected regularly.

4. The Minnesota semi truck driver is responsible to make sure even their emergency medical equipment is in working order and legal at all times. The truck driver has a duty to inspect it and use it. (49 CFR § 393.95)

5. An Minnesota tractor trailer (semi truck) driver must make sure that emergency equipment is in place and ready to be used at any time. (49 CFR § 393.95)

v. Vehicle identification rule:
(a) The following carriers shall display the carrier's name on the power unit of each vehicle:
(1) motor carriers, regardless of the weight of the vehicle, except that this requirement does not apply to a limousine as defined in section 168.002, subdivision 15, that is equipped with "LM" license plates;
(2) interstate and intrastate private carriers operating vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of more than 10,000 pounds; and
(3) vehicles providing transportation described in section 221.025 with a gross vehicle weight of more than 10,000 pounds except those providing transportation described in section 221.025, clauses (1), (3), and (4).
Vehicles described in clauses (2) and (3) that are operated by farmers or farm employees and have four or fewer axles are not required to comply with the vehicle identification rule of the commissioner.
(b) Vehicles subject to this subdivision must show the name or "doing business as" name of the carrier operating the vehicle. If the carrier operates a leased vehicle, it may show its name and the name of the lessor on the vehicle, if the lease relationship is clearly shown. If the name of a person other than the operating carrier appears on the vehicle, the words "operated by" must immediately precede the name of the carrier.
(c) The name must be in letters that contrast sharply in color with the background, be readily legible during daylight hours from a distance of 50 feet while the vehicle is stationary, and be maintained in a manner that retains the legibility of the markings. The name may be shown by use of a removable device if that device meets the identification and legibility requirements of this subdivision. (Minn. Stat. § 221.031)

vi. The provisions of this chapter requiring a certificate or permit to operate as a motor carrier do not apply to the intrastate transportation described below:
(1) the transportation of students to or from school or school activities in a school bus inspected and certified under section 169.451 and the transportation of children or parents to or from a Head Start facility or Head Start activity in a Head Start bus inspected and certified under section 169.451;

(9) the transportation of pulpwood, cordwood, mining timber, poles, posts, decorator evergreens, wood chips, sawdust, shavings, and bark from the place where the products are produced to the point where they are to be used or shipped;
(10) the transportation of fresh vegetables from farms to canneries or viner stations, from viner stations to canneries, or from canneries to canneries during the harvesting, canning, or packing season, or transporting sugar beets, wild rice, or rutabagas from the field of production to the first place of delivery or unloading, including a processing plant, warehouse, or railroad siding;

(14) the transportation of newspapers, as defined in section 331A.01, subdivision 5, telephone books, handbills, circulars, or pamphlets in a vehicle with a gross vehicle weight of 10,000 pounds or less; and
(15) transportation of potatoes from the field of production, or a storage site owned or otherwise controlled by the producer, to the first place of processing.
The exemptions provided in this section apply to a person only while the person is exclusively engaged in exempt transportation. (Minn. Stat. § 221.025)

2. Disqualifications of Driver:

1. Minnesota motor carriers, or employers or semi truck drivers, do not have the authority to disqualify a semi truck driver. Disqualifying offenses are listed in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations. 49 CFR § 391.15)

2. Some disqualifying offenses of Minnesota semi truck drivers include (but are not limited to):
