    A proposed federal rule to require the use of speed limiters on heavy-duty trucks has cleared its final hurdle in the regulatory process and will likely be published in the coming weeks. The White House’s Office of Management and Budget stamped its approval on the rule Aug. 12, according to the White House’s online rulemaking portal.

    The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking may now be published at the U.S. Department of Transportation’s discretion. Rules are generally published in the weeks following their clerance of the OMB.

    Just what we need, more governed trucks battling to get ahead of one another buy one truck going .01 mph faster than the other

    Not one positive thing anyway. Hopefully a huge court battle ensues resulting in the elimination of speed limiting laws or cpm pay schemes, they kinda contradict each other
