§385.405T. Application for safety permit. — Inbound Citations

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.

(2) A motor carrier provides any false or misleading information on its application (Form MCS-150B) or as part of updated information it is providing on Form MCS-150B (see § 385.405T(d)).
