The motor carriers that operate interstate are obliged to comply with the cargo securement regulations. The new regulations are based on the trucking industry’s practices.
In addition to this, they are applying to the results of the research program in order to evaluate the cargo securement rules.
Moreover, these new regulations are represented with the help of a series of meetings including US and industry experts.
There are also Federal and State officials included in the program. The new regulations are demanding the motor carriers to change the cargo usage in order to prevent it from falling.
However, although these demanding rules should be respected, there are those that do not prohibit tie downs or devices in use.
In this way, the carriers are not specifically required to purchase new equipment as a truck tire, truck antenna etc.
