New Jersey CDL school lawsuit questions evidence behind FMCSA shutdown
A New Jersey CDL school is seeking reinstatement to the federal training registry, challenging an FMCSA emergency removal. The post New Jersey CDL school lawsuit questions evidence behind FMCSA shutdown appeared first on FreightWaves .
Start CDL, a CDL school based in Cinnaminson, New Jersey, has filed a lawsuit against the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) questioning the evidence behind its emergency removal from the FMCSA's training registry. The lawsuit, filed on October 2 in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, claims that the FMCSA improperly used drivers' later English-proficiency violations as justification for the shutdown of Start CDL's federally regulated training operations.
However, the lawsuit raises additional concerns regarding the evidence presented by the FMCSA. The complaint includes a six-driver spreadsheet naming another training provider, while the attached roadside reports concern 10 different drivers. Furthermore, discrepancies in dates are present, such as an English-assessment certificate dated after the roadside inspection it allegedly preceded.
