Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
(1) An applicant for a permit may not have an
			 unsatisfactory rating from US DOT or the equivalent safety rating from Oregon
			 Department of Transportation, Commerce and Compliance Division.
(2)
(a) An
			 interstate permittee operating triple trailers must have a satisfactory US DOT
			 safety rating, and an intrastate permittee must have an equivalent safety
			 rating from the Oregon Department of Transportation, Commerce and Compliance
			 Division;
(b) Motor carriers exempt
			 from regulation by US DOT or the Oregon Department of Transportation, Commerce
			 and Compliance Division shall have a Level 1 safety inspection performed by a
			 Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) certified safety inspector to be
			 eligible for a triple trailer permit. This safety inspection must determine the
			 driver and combination of vehicles are free of defects. The motor carrier
			 becomes eligible for a permit when all repairs or deficiencies written on the
			 inspection form are corrected and verified by a CVSA-certified safety
			 inspector. The successful completion of the Level 1 safety inspection is used
			 to establish a satisfactory safety rating. Successful completion of this Level
			 1 safety inspection is required every year before the triple trailer permit may
			 be renewed;
(c) For purposes of
			 this rule, a satisfactory safety rating means a safety rating other than
			 unsatisfactory.
