Today, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) announced that Administrator Robin Hutcheson will be leaving the agency on January 26th.
CVTA warmly thanks Administrator Hutcheson for her leadership, her urgency in supporting ELDT enforcement systems and for the valued partnership with CVTA’s membership.
During her tenure, Administrator Hutcheson prioritized critical improvements to the enforcement of Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) requirements. These improvements have led to institutional and systematic enforcement strategies of ELDT and the Training Provider Registry (TPR) that will continue to improve highway safety.
