Summary

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has determined that Washington state’s meal-and-rest-break rules for commercial truck drivers are pre-empted by federal hours-of-service regulations. The determination, included in a notice scheduled for publication in the Federal Register on Nov. 17, honors a petition submitted by Washington Trucking Associations in April 2019. According to the notice, FMCSA has determined that Washington’s meal-and-rest-break laws have no safety benefits that extend beyond those provided by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, are incompatible with federal HOS rules and place an “unreasonable burden” on interstate commerce.
