RMV (Registry of Motor Vehicles) is a government agency responsible for vehicle registration, driver licensing, and other motor vehicle-related services in many states in the United States. The RMV handles tasks such as issuing driver’s licenses, registering vehicles, and administering driving tests.
For those holding a CDL or CLP, note the amended Commercial Driver License standards known as the “CDL Permit Rule,” implemented by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). Starting in July 2016, the Massachusetts RMV will enforce this regulation.
The MassDOT RMV has extended the deadline for CDL holders to submit self-certification information and a copy of the US DOT Medical Certificate to April 30, 2014, in accordance with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration requirements.
As per 2012 Federal and State mandates, Commercial Driver’s License holders must notify their state’s RMV about their commerce type (interstate or intrastate) and medical certificate necessity. All CDL holders must self-certify by January 30, 2014, to comply with these requirements.
Since October 1, 2008, an annual enhanced Massachusetts Commercial Motor Vehicle Inspection has been mandated for single, full, or semi-trailers exceeding 3,000 pounds GVWR, as well as commercial vehicle/trailer combinations over 10,000 pounds GCVWR, and heavy-duty motor vehicles exceeding 10,000 pounds GVWR, including converter dollies.
