Legislation. FMCSA Is Increasing Use of GPS Logs for HOS Audits, Qualcomm Exec Says | Transport Topics Online | Trucking, Freight Transportation and Logistics News. By Dan Leone, Staff Reporter This article appears in the Sept. 21 print edition of Transport Topics. Click here to subscribe today. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is increasing its use of Global Positioning System history logs as supporting evidence in driver hours-of-service audits, an executive with Qualcomm Inc. said last week. Norm Ellis, Qualcomm’s vice president and general manager for transportation and logistics, said the company had “seen an uptick” in FMCSA’s use of electronic data in enforcement actions. Electronic data, such as the position logs generated by GPS-based tracking systems and electronic onboard recorders, have been used by FMCSA since December, when it lifted a more than decade-old moratorium on using electronic data to verify hours.
The agency now requires carriers using GPS tracking and EOBRs to retain data generated by these systems for six months. FMCSA did not return calls to Transport Topics last week seeking comment. 1 2 Next >>
