  2. Objectives • Review the changes to the 2014 Out-of-Service Criteria effective April 1, 2014.

  3. 2014 OOSC Changes • Effective April 1, 2014 • Part I Changes • Part II Changes • Policy Changes • Changes denoted by * • For this Presentation – Changes highlighted in Red

  4. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *2. OPERATOR’S/CHAUFFEUR’S LICENSE OR PERMIT (NON-CDL) *a. Vehicle 26,000 lbs. or less GVWR not designed to transport 16 ormore passengers or placarded loads of hazardous materials. *(2) Operating a non-CDL required commercial motor vehicle with driving privileges revoked, suspended, cancelled, or otherwise disqualified. (391.15(a)) Declare driver out-of- service. (Out-of-service action to be initiated if a driver’s license is suspended in a jurisdiction for any safety related or unknown reason.)

  5. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *2. OPERATOR’S/CHAUFFEUR’S LICENSE OR PERMIT (NON-CDL) Justification: This change, which removes non-safety related license suspensions from constituting an OOS condition, corresponds with the fact that the OOSC is a safety document and offers a middle ground that meets the States’/Providence’s needs while being fair to industry, as more non-safety related license suspensions are occurring. This does not preclude an inspector from acting in accordance with their States’/Providence’s requirements, as allowed by their Memorandum of Understanding with CVSA.

  6. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *3. CDL *a. License *(2) Operating a CDL required commercial motor vehicle with driving privileges revoked, suspended, cancelled, or otherwise disqualified. (383.51(a)) Declare driver out-of- service. (Out-of-service action to be initiated if a driver’s license is suspended in a jurisdiction for any safety- related or unknown reason.)

  7. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *3. CDL Justification: This change, which removes non-safety related license suspensions from constituting an OOS condition, corresponds with the fact that the OOSC is a safety document and offers a middle ground that meets the States’/Providence’s needs while being fair to industry, as more non-safety related license suspensions are occurring. This does not preclude an inspector from acting in accordance with their States’/Providence’s requirements, as allowed by their Memorandum of Understanding with CVSA.

  8. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *4. DRIVER MEDICAL/PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS *b. Medical Certificate *(4) Operating a property-carrying vehicle without a valid medical certificate in possession. If the driver fails to produce a medical certificate or has an expired medical certificate and has a previous history of failing to produce a medical certificate, or having an expired medical certificate, the driver shall be placed out-of-service. (391.41(a)) Declare driver out-of-service. Inspection Bulletin 2013-03 – Driver Possession of a Valid Medical Certificate

  9. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *4. DRIVER MEDICAL/PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS *b. Medical Certificate *(4) (continued) *NOTE: A CDL driver whose CDLIS query indicates no medical certification has been filed and who presents a valid medical certificate during inspection shall not be placed out-of-service during the transition period.

  10. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *4. DRIVER MEDICAL/PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS Justification: This change informs the roadside inspector that Inspection Bulletin 2013-03 – Driver Possession of a Valid Medical Certificate has recently been changed, providing additional clarification on how to place a driver out-of-service for not having a medical certificate. The note further instructs inspectors to accept a valid medical certificate as proof of compliance, when in hand, if CDLIS shows otherwise, since several States are in various stages of the medical certificate/CDL integration process, whose transition period has been extended to January 30, 2015.

  11. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *4. DRIVER MEDICAL/PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS *b. Medical Certificate *(5) Operating a commercial motor vehicle with a fraudulent medical certificate. (390.35) Declare driver out-of- service.

  12. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *4. DRIVER MEDICAL/PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS Justification: This change allows the roadside inspector to place a driver out-of-service for having a fraudulent medical certificate, a condition that was previously just a violation.

  13. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *10. DRIVER’S RECORD OF DUTY STATUS – U.S. *a. Property-Carrying Vehicles (395.3) *(1) 11 Hour Rule (See Footnotes 3, 4, 6, and 8) Driving more than eleven (11) hours following ten (10) consecutive hours off duty. (395.3(a)(3)(i)) Declare driver out-of-service until such time as eligibility to drive is re-established.

  14. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part I • *10. DRIVER’S RECORD OF DUTY STATUS – U.S. Justification: This change corrects the referenced cite number to correspond with 395.3 since it was amended to incorporate the newly created ‘30-minute rule’.

  15. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *Policy Statement For the purpose of a CVSA decal issuance, if no violation is detected during a North American Standard Level I or Level V Inspection due to a hidden part, other than pushrod stroke measurements, of the listed Critical Vehicle Inspection Items, then a CVSA decal shall be applied. However, if more than 20 percent of pushrod travel, on exposed pushrods, cannot be measured, then a CVSA decal shall not be applied.

  16. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *Policy Statement (continued) If a brake measurement was not obtained due to a hidden component, then “NM” shall be documented for that wheel-end brake as well as being noted on the inspection report that it was not measured due to a hidden component. Brakes not measured will be considered compliant and still included in the 20 percent calculation. An inspector can still apply a CVSA decal even though his/her jurisdiction does not allow for the inspection of gaseous fuel systems.

  17. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *Policy Statement Justification: This change seeks to clarify the existing policy on what constitutes ‘hidden parts’ and when a Level I or a Level V inspection can or cannot be completed. It establishes a standard for when a vehicle qualifies for a Level I or Level V inspection and when too many brakes are not accessible (more than 20 percent) to qualify. Also, it provides guidance on how to document brake measurements for brakes that are not accessible for inspection. This change also restates the fact that gaseous fuel systems are an optional inspection item.

  18. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *Policy Statement When a vehicle is declared out-of-service for a condition resulting from an accumulation of violations, all violations that contributed to the specific out-of-service condition must be repaired (e.g., a vehicle, or vehicles in combination declared out-of service for 20 percent defective brake violations must have all the 20 percent defective brake violations repaired prior to being released; or, a vehicle declared out-of-service for two tires at less than 1/32 inch (0.8mm) tread depth must have both tire violations repaired prior to the vehicle being released, etc.).

  19. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *Policy Statement (continued) Once all of the contributing out-of-service violations have been repaired on any vehicle in a combination, that specific vehicle in the combination is no longer considered to be out-of-service.

  20. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *Policy Statement Justification: This addition to the Part II Policy Statement serves to clarify the out-of-service policy for conditions resulting from an accumulation of violations, on multiple vehicles in a combination, such as the 20 percent rule.

  21. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • DESCRIPTION AND ORDER OF SECTIONS • *2. CARGO SECUREMENT • *3. COUPLING DEVICES • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT • *5. EXHAUST SYSTEMS • *6. FRAMES • *7. FUEL SYSTEMS • *8. LIGHTING DEVICES (HEADLAMPS, TAIL LAMPS, STOP LAMPS, TURN SIGNALS AND LAMPS / FLAGS ON PROJECTING LOADS)

  22. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • DESCRIPTION AND ORDER OF SECTIONS • *9. STEERING MECHANISMS • *10. SUSPENSION • *11. TIRES • *12. VAN AND OPEN-TOP TRAILER BODIES • *13. WHEELS, RIMS AND HUBS • *14. WINDSHIELD WIPERS • *15. EMERGENCY EXITS AND/OR ELECTRICAL CABLES ANDSYSTEMS IN ENGINE AND BATTERY COMPARTMENTS (BUSES)

  23. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • DESCRIPTION AND ORDER OF SECTIONS Justification: This change rearranges, in alphabetical order, the sections of Part II due to the renaming of SECUREMENT OF CARGO to CARGO SECUREMENTand the interpolation of a new section, DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT.

  24. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *1. BRAKE SYSTEMS *a. Defective Brakes *(5) Drum (Cam-Type and Wedge) Air Brakes *(a) Missing or broken brake shoe, lining, return spring (shoe or chamber), anchor pin, spider, cam roller, camshaft, pushrod, yoke, clevis pin, clevis pin retainer (e.g., cotter pin), brake adjuster, parking brake power spring, or air chamber mounting bolt. (393.48(a)) Inspection Bulletin 2006-01 – Camshaft Bushings

  25. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *1. BRAKE SYSTEMS Justification: This change adds a condition, to be considered a defective brake included in the 20 percent rule criterion, that can very quickly allow a clevis pin to be lost and degrade brake performance or render a brake inoperative.

  26. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II

  27. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *1. BRAKE SYSTEMS *a. Defective Brakes *(6) Air Disc Brakes (Exposed Pushrods and Direct Coupled – Air Chamber to Caliper) *(a) Missing or broken caliper, brake pad, pad retaining component, pushrod, yoke, clevis pin, clevis pin retainer (e.g., cotter pin), brake adjuster, parking brake power spring, chamber return spring, or air chamber mounting bolt. (393.48(a))

  28. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *1. BRAKE SYSTEMS Justification: This change adds a condition, to be considered a defective brake included in the 20 percent rule criterion, that can very quickly allow a clevis pin to be lost and degrade brake performance or render a brake inoperative.

  29. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *1. BRAKE SYSTEMS *a. Defective Brakes *(7) Hydraulic and Electric Brakes *(a) Missing or broken caliper, pad retaining component, brake pad, shoe, or lining. (393.48(a))

  30. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *1. BRAKE SYSTEMS Justification: This change addresses an unintentional omission from the OOSC that was originally included only in the section for air disc brakes, but is now included in the section for hydraulic and electric brakes. The pad retaining component, normally a metal bracket, prevents the brake pads from becoming dislodged from the caliper.

  31. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II

  32. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II

  33. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *1. BRAKE SYSTEMS *k. Air Loss Rate If an air leak is discovered and either the primary or secondary reservoir pressure is not maintained when: (396.3(a)(1)) (1) Governor is cut-in; (2) Reservoir pressure is between 80-90 psi (551-620 kPa); (3) Engine is at idle; and, *(4) Service brakes are either fully applied or released.

  34. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *1. BRAKE SYSTEMS Justification: This change addresses a previously unknown condition that can occur during the air loss rate test portion of the inspection process that was not covered in the OOSC. It was determined that during the air loss rate test, loss of air from the brake system upon brake release was an equally serious safety hazard necessitating its removal from the roadway.

  35. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT *a. Yoke Ends (Including Slip Yoke, Yoke Shaft, Tube Yoke and End Fitting Yoke) *(1) Any visible crack in a yoke end. (396.3(a)(1)) *(2) Any yoke mounting hardware loose (with hand pressure only), broken or missing. (396.3(a)(1))

  36. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT *a. Yoke Ends (Including Slip Yoke, Yoke Shaft, Tube Yoke and End Fitting Yoke) *(3) Any horizontal or vertical movement of slip joint yoke shaft of greater than ½ inch (12.8 mm), with hand pressure only. (396.3(a)(1)) *(4) Any loose, broken or missing end fitting fastener. (Also see item 4.b.(1)) (396.3(a)(1))

  37. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II Slip Joint

  38. Yoke 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II Yoke Nut (mounting hardware) End Fitting

  39. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT *b. Universal Joint *(1) Any independent vertical movement between opposing yoke ends greater than 1/8 inch (3.2 mm), with hand pressure only. (396.3(a)(1)) *(2) Any missing universal joint bearing cap. (Also see item 4.b.(1)) (396.3(a)(1))

  40. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT *b. Universal Joint *(3) Any missing, broken or loose (with hand pressure only) universal joint bearing cap bolt. (396.3(a)(1))

  41. Bearing Assembly Cap Bearing Cap Bolt Retainer Bolt 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II

  42. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT *c. Center Bearing (Carrier Bearing) *(1) Any broken or loose center bearing bracket, bracket bolts or mounting hardware. (396.3(a)(1)) *(2) Any center bearing bracket crack equaling 50 percent or more of the original bracket width. (396.3(a)(1))

  43. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT *c. Center Bearing (Carrier Bearing) *(3) More than ½ inch (12.8 mm) vertical movement (with hand pressure only) of the shaft in the center bearing carrier. (396.3(a)(1))

  44. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II Center Bearing Bracket Center Bearing Carrier (rubber) Shaft

  45. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT *d. Driveshaft Tube *(1) Any original metal crack in the shaft tube greater than ¼ inch (6.4 mm) in length. (396.3(a)(1)) *(2) Obvious cracked weld at shaft tube end. (396.3(a)(1)) *(3) Any shaft tube with obvious twist. (396.3(a)(1))

  46. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II Twisted Shaft Tube Shaft Tube End Weld

  47. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II

  48. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT Inspection Bulletin 2014-01 – Driveline/Driveshaft Inspections

  49. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *4. DRIVELINE/DRIVESHAFT Justification: The interpolation of this new section addresses the hazards created by failed drivelines, which can lead to a commercial vehicle’s inability to move and/or driveline parts falling off the commercial vehicle and becoming hazardous road debris. It also informs the roadside inspector that Inspection Bulletin 2014-01 – Driveline/Driveshaft Inspections has recently been created describing the inspection procedures and operating information for the driveline components on commercial vehicles. It is written for the purpose of supporting roadside vehicle inspections and is primarily intended to identify OOS conditions.

  50. 2014 OOSC Changes - Part II • *5. EXHAUST SYSTEMS *b. Any bus exhaust system leaking or discharging under the chassis more than 6 inches (15.24 cm) forward of the rear most part of the bus when powered by gasoline engine, or more than 15 inches (38.1 cm) forward of the rear most part of the bus when powered by other than a gasoline engine, unless the exhaust discharges to the rear of all doors or windows designed to be opened, which does not include doors or windows designed to be opened solely as emergency exits.
