SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

MCSAC was established to provide 

FMCSA with advice and 

recommendations on motor carrier 

safety programs and motor carrier safety 

regulations. MCSAC is composed of up 

to 20 voting representatives from safety 

advocacy, safety enforcement, labor, and 

industry stakeholders of motor carrier 

safety. The diversity of the Committee 

ensures the requisite range of views and 

expertise necessary to discharge its 

responsibilities. The Committee 

operates as a discretionary committee 

under the authority of the U.S. 

Department of Transportation (DOT), 

established in accordance with the 

provisions of the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act (FACA), as amended, 5 

U.S.C. App. 2. See FMCSA’s MCSAC 

Web site for additional information 

about the committee’s activities at 

http://mcsac.fmcsa.dot.gov/. 

Voluntary Compliance Task 

The truck and motorcoach industries 

and the DOT have invested significant 

resources to research, develop, and test 

strategies and technologies to reduce 

truck and bus crashes. In September 

2014, the Commercial Vehicle Safety 

Alliance submitted a request to FMCSA 

to consider initiating a pilot program to 

investigate the benefits and feasibility of 

voluntary compliance. Citing research 

that has been underway for several 

years, the Agency established an 

Alternative Compliance initiative the 

goal of which is to analyze the concept 

and gather data to support how this 

concept might be developed and 

implemented. The Agency will request 

that the MCSAC, with its collective 

expertise on transportation safety, 

identify options for the motor carrier 

safety community to promote programs 

that could improve safety beyond the 

standards established in FMCSA 

regulations.

Administration 

Petition for Exemption From the 

Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard; 

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. 

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic 

Safety Administration, Department of 

Transportation. 

ACTION: Grant of petition for exemption. 

SUMMARY: This document grants in full 

the Volkswagen Group of America, 

Inc.’s (Volkswagen’s) petition for 

exemption of the Audi TT vehicle line 

in accordance with 49 CFR part 543, 

Exemption from the Theft Prevention 

Standard. This petition is granted 

because the agency has determined that 

the antitheft device to be placed on the 

line as standard equipment is likely to 

be as effective in reducing and deterring 

motor vehicle theft as compliance with 

the parts-marking requirements of 49 

CFR part 541, Federal Motor Vehicle 

Theft Prevention Standard (Theft 

Prevention Standard).
