Before Jan. 1, 2017 the record is one snapshot per annual CFR edition, revised as of October 1. This is the 1996 edition's wording. An amendment that took effect between Oct. 1, 1997 and Oct. 1, 1997 would not appear until the next edition, so check the citations below and the Federal Register for exact effective dates. govinfo does not publish the 1997 edition of Parts 300–399 in machine-readable form, so the 1996 text is shown for that year.

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) policy is to encourage each State to enforce uniform motor carrier safety and hazardous materials regulations for both interstate and intrastate motor carriers and drivers. The requirements for compliance with safety standards in one State should be compatible with the requirements in another State. A coordinated program of inspection and enforcement activities is needed to avoid duplication of effort, to promote compliance with uniform safety requirements by all types of motor carriers, and to provide a basis for sanctioning carriers for poor safety performance.
