The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, or FMCSR, are rules developed by the United States Department of Transportation and are found in Title 49, Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 390 through 397. These regulations are in place to ensure that commercial vehicles are safe, not just for other motorists on the highways, but are in safe operating condition for drivers of these types of vehicles. Missouri has adopted these regulations as state statute, making them applicable to intrastate operation as well as interstate operation. These regulations can be obtained from J. J. Keller and Associates in Neenah, Wisconsin, or from LabelMaster in Chicago, Illinois, from the Internet at www.fmcsa.dot.gov, from a government bookstore, from Missouri Motor Carrier's Association, or at a full service truck stop with a professional driver's shop
