§ 385.411 State-issued safety permit.
PART 385—SAFETY FITNESS PROCEDURES, last amended 2024-11-18
A motor carrier must comply with the requirements of this subpart even if it has a State-issued safety permit. However, if FMCSA is able to verify that a motor carrier has a safety permit issued by a State under a program that FMCSA has determined to be equivalent to the provisions of this subpart, FMCSA will immediately issue a safety permit to the motor carrier upon receipt of an application in accordance with § 385.405T, without further inspection or investigation.
