WASHINGTON, May 30 -- Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has issued a proposed rule called: Parts and Accessories Necessary for Safe Operation; Spare Fuses.

The proposed rule was published in the Federal Register on May 30 by Sue Lawless, Assistant Administrator.

Summary: FMCSA proposes to remove the requirement for commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) to be equipped with at least one spare fuse for each type and size of fuse needed for the parts and accessories of the CMV. This proposed change would remove an unnecessary requirement from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs).
