Truck drivers: FMCSA wants to see your leasing agreement
Agency looks to expose predatory companies by collecting evidence from owner-operators

The request is part of a data collection that the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is requesting on behalf of its Truck Leasing Task Force (TLTF) in an effort to crack down on deceptive leasing practices that can affect a truck driver’s health and safety.
