Compliance and Regulatory News
CTA
has been receiving a few calls from members asking when the ELD mandate will be
implemented (enforceable) in California for intrastate drivers. As was reported
previously, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) has until February of 2019 to
adopt and implement the ELD regulations for purely intrastate drivers. However,
CTA is advising intrastate drivers to be prepared leading up to February 2019,
the CHP could adopt them earlier than February. CTA will continue to update
members as things progress. For more information, contact Eric Sauer at esauer@caltrux.org.

The hall outside the general session room at this year’s Annual Membership Conference at the Monterey Plaza Hotel were alit with color and whimsy from the posters submitted for consideration in the Annual Schools Poster Contest. The posters decorated the hallway for the duration of the conference during which attendees were encouraged to vote for their favorites. This year’s theme was "Truckers Are The Heart of Trucking."
