The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has initiated a nationwide emergency shutdown of 111 entry-level driver training providers across 20 states and online operations. These providers, including those with inactive or unknown locations, were required to cease operations immediately after the Aug. 31 action. The providers, identified through comparison of Training Provider Registry records with driver inspection records, had collectively trained over 5,000 drivers who were later cited for English proficiency violations.
Texas and Pennsylvania had the most physical-location entries, with 13 each, while California, Florida, and Utah accounted for two-thirds of the state-based entries. The roster contains 84 entries tied to physical locations, 23 online entries, and four unknown/inactive entries. Emergency removal takes effect immediately, and providers can seek administrative review if they believe their listing presents an imminent hazard or substantial likelihood of death or serious injury.
