**BILLING CODE 4710–05–P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION**  **Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration**  **[Docket No. FMCSA–2008–0224] Parts and Accessories Necessary for**  **Safe Operation; Exemption Renewal for Greyhound Lines, Inc.** 

**AGENCY :**  Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), DOT.
**ACTION :**  Notice of renewal of exemption; request for comments.

**SUMMARY :**  FMCSA announces its renewal of the exemption for Greyhound Lines, Inc. (Greyhound) regarding the placement of video event recorders at the top of the windshields on its buses. Greyhound will continue to use the video event recorders to increase safety through (1) identification and remediation of risky driving behaviors such as distracted driving and drowsiness; (2) enhanced monitoring of passenger behavior; and (3) enhanced collision review and analysis. The Agency believes that granting this exemption renewal will maintain a level of safety that is equivalent to, or greater than, the level of safety achieved without the exemption. However, the Agency requests comments on this issue, particularly from parties who believe the Greyhound exemption would not meet that standard.
