FMCSA removed TRUCKSTAFF ELD (model TRKSF, identifier TRS227) from its list of registered electronic logging devices for failing to meet the minimum requirements in 49 CFR Part 395, Appendix A to Subpart B. Motor carriers using the device must revert to paper logs or logging software immediately and install a compliant registered ELD before August 23, 2026, after which drivers still using the revoked device will be cited for operating without an ELD and placed out-of-service under CVSA criteria.

FMCSA removed 12 devices from its list of registered electronic logging devices — including 888 ELD, DRAGON E, ACTION ELD, Mondo ELD HOS, FIRST ELD, MTL ELD, USPower ELD, Sam Freight ELD, DSGELOGS, COBRA ELD, and GT USA ELOGS — for failing to meet the minimum technical requirements in 49 CFR Part 395, Appendix A to Subpart B. Motor carriers using a revoked device must revert to paper logs or logging software now and install a compliant registered ELD before July 20, 2026, after which drivers will be cited for operating without an ELD and placed out-of-service under CVSA criteria. FMCSA has removed 79 non-compliant devices since January 2025.

FMCSA rolled out Motus, the U.S. DOT Registration System, replacing the legacy network of loosely connected registration applications for motor carriers, brokers, freight forwarders, and other regulated entities. Motus introduces mandatory identity verification using government-issued IDs and digital facial scans plus third-party business validation, targeting the "chameleon" and reincarnated carriers that exploited the old low-validation framework. Carriers need a Login.gov account to access Motus and must use the same account previously tied to their FMCSA Portal access to retain their registration data.
