To amend title 49, United States Code, relating to deregulation of intrastate trucking.

Summary

Prohibits a State, political subdivision, or agency or organization of two or more States (entities) from enacting or enforcing any law, rule, regulation, or standard relating to interstate or intrastate rates, routes, or services: (1) of a corporate compensated carrier not operating under the jurisdiction of the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC); (2) involving transportation by a motor vehicle and driver leased by a shipper from a single source when certain conditions exist; and (3) of any transportation of property provided by motor vehicles leased, with or without drivers, from a motor private carrier, to the extent that such law, rule, regulation, or standard is in addition to, or more stringent than, the requirements for such operations established by the ICC. Prohibits such entities from enacting or enforcing any law, rule, regulation, or standard that: (1) prohibits or limits the ability of a person providing transportation to obtain a motor common carrier certificate or motor contract carrier permit to provide intrastate transportation of property, whether under the same corporate structure as the nontransportation primary business or as a separate transportation subsidiary, by virtue of the person's status as a nontransportation primary business, or that subjects such person to criteria that are not applied to a transportation business seeking the same authority to operate as a motor common or contract carrier; or (2) prohibits, limits, or places requirements on transportation services other than requirements for the safety of operations and minimum financial responsibility. Defines "dedicated contract driver" to mean a motor contract carrier that assigns vehicles management personnel drivers, and other related workers for the exclusive use of a contracting shipper.
