Motor Carrier Act

Read a random definition: writ of garnishment

A quick definition of Motor Carrier Act:

The Motor Carrier Act was a law created in 1935 that regulated companies that transported goods and people across state lines. This law made sure that these companies followed rules set by the government to keep everyone safe. The law was later removed in the 1980s.

A more thorough explanation:

The Motor Carrier Act is a federal law that was first passed in 1935. It applies to companies that transport goods or people across state lines. These companies are known as commercial motor carriers.

Under the Motor Carrier Act, commercial motor carriers are subject to regulations set by the U.S. Department of Transportation. This helps ensure that these companies operate safely and efficiently.

For example, the Motor Carrier Act might require commercial motor carriers to maintain certain safety standards for their vehicles. It might also require them to keep detailed records of their operations.

The Motor Carrier Act was repealed in the 1980s, but many of its regulations are still in effect today. This helps keep our roads safe and ensures that goods and people can be transported across the country with ease.
