This morning we wrote to FMCSA Administrator Raymond Martinez and top level FMCSA officials demanding they look at the big picture on ELDs... "I also want to make it clear that the SBTC does not condone unlawful speeding, especially through construction & school zones, to circumvent ELD enforcement of the HOS regs just like we did not condone cheating on paper logs. We believe ELDs have induced speeding and would suggest death cares not how it gets you. I will offer these final points on the speeding issue worthy of the agency's attention. Forbes recently released a report linking what we all know: speeding is linked to fatal accidents: https://www.forbes.com/sites/tanyamohn/2018/03/30/speed-kills-new-global-study-confirms-strong-link-between-crash-risk-and-vehicle-speed/#7fb8e23f529e According to this International Transport Forum report, inappropriate speed is responsible for 20 to 30% of all fatal road crashes: http://www.itf-oecd.org/speed-crash-risk According to the Department's own NHTSA report, 2016 national data show that Drowsy-driving deaths (803 fatalities) decreased by 3.5 percent while Speeding-related deaths (10,111 fatalities) increased by 4.0 percent. https://www.nhtsa.gov/press-releases/usdot-releases-2016-fatal-traffic-crash-data We think 2018 stats will show ELDs were a fatal mistake by FMCSA and the current upward trend in speeding related fatalities will continue."
