Summary
Safe American Roads Act of 2007 - Prohibits the Secretary of Transportation from granting authority to a Mexico-domiciled motor carrier to operate beyond U.S. municipalities and commercial zones on the U.S.-Mexico border, except under a pilot program that complies with provisions: (1) directing Mexico-domiciled motor carrier compliance with certain federal motor carrier safety and inspection requirements under the Department of Transportation and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2002; (2) authorizing the Secretary to conduct pilot programs to evaluate alternatives to regulations relating to, or innovative approaches to, motor carrier, commercial motor vehicle, and driver safety; and (3) prohibiting Mexico-domiciled motor carriers from operating beyond U.S. municipalities and commercial zones on the U.S.-Mexico border until U.S.-domiciled motor carriers are allowed similarly to operate in Mexico. Directs the Inspector General of the Department of Transportation to monitor and review, and submit an interim and final report to Congress regarding, the pilot program. Requires the Secretary, not later than 60 days after the termination of the pilot program, to report to Congress on the results of such program.
