What does 49 CFR 385.335 (Compliance review in lieu of safety audit) require?

Generated guidance. Confirm the source and its applicability before you act. How we check sources.

According to 49 CFR 385.335, if the FMCSA conducts a compliance review on a new entrant (which has not previously had a safety audit) and issues a safety fitness determination, that motor carrier is not required to undergo a separate safety audit.

However, as a motor-carrier owner, you must note that you will still remain subject to the 18-month safety-monitoring period before your new entrant designation can be removed.
