About FMCSA manuals on Manuals.plus
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is a distinct administration within the U.S. Department of Transportation, dedicated to reducing crashes, injuries, and fatalities involving large trucks and buses. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., the agency develops and enforces safety regulations for commercial motor vehicles (CMVs), manages the Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) program, and maintains the registry of certified Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs).
In the context of user manuals and guides, the FMCSA brand is frequently associated with regulatory documentation, driver instruction sheets, and compliance manuals for ELD hardware and software. While the FMCSA itself does not manufacture consumer electronics, many third-party designated 'FMCSA-compliant' devices and apps—such as those used for Hours of Service (HOS) tracking—reference the agency's standards. This category hosts guides for both the official federal regulations and the usage of various ELD systems registered with the FMCSA.
