WASHINGTON — The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is dropping four electronic logging devices (ELDs) from its list of registered devices.
“Electronic logging devices play an important role in preventing unsafe driving practices,” said Derek Barrs, FMCSA administrator. “When devices don’t meet federal requirements, they put safety at risk, and that’s why we take action to remove them and keep our roads safer for everyone.”

- Replace the revoked ELDs with compliant ELDs from the Registered Devices list before March 1, 2026.
