Trucking Tools: Transportation Compliance: As Easy as Opening the Glove Box
Department of Transportation, Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations: Driver - Glove Box Edition
When customers talk, the safety experts at MANCOMM listen.
MANCOMM develops and publishes regulatory compliance products, and according to Benjamin W. Mangan, founder and president of the company, MANCOMM’s transportation industry customers wanted each of their drivers to have a book of Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations that could fit in a glove box.
“They also wanted the book to lie flat when opened, for easy reference,” Mangan said. “Thanks to that valuable input from customers, those features are now part of MANCOMM’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, Driver – Glove Box Edition.”
According to Mangan, the Glove Box Edition is made with RegLogic® Black, a unique graphical approach that makes navigating and reading regulations easier than ever. The webpage dotcfr.com features information on the Glove Box Edition and a link to sample pages from the book, so customers can see and evaluate RegLogic® Black.
“Our goal was to produce The Ultimate Green Book®,” he added. “To ensure the most accurate understanding of the regulations, our new Glove Box edition includes Department of Transportation interpretations following the regulations to which they apply.” The Glove Box Edition includes Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Parts 380, 382, 383, 387, 390-399 and Appendix A-G to Subchapter B.
Information in the Glove Box Edition can be accessed through the book’s Quick-Find Index™ by page number or regulation number, and the table of contents is written in a logical, detailed format, eliminating unnecessary confusion for drivers or students. Also included is an associate/driver receipt, to prove that the driver has received this necessary regulatory information, as well as driver worksheets and a list of FMCSA field offices and phone numbers.
MANCOMM offers the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, Driver – Glove Box Edition at $4.95 each. When ordering, please use VIP Code DGPRH when asked for a promotional code.
