The Motor Carrier Safety Selection Standard Act of 2024 aims to improve safety in the transportation of goods by establishing a national standard for how companies choose motor carriers. The main goal is to ensure that businesses contracting with motor carriers take reasonable steps to verify that these carriers meet safety and insurance requirements. Key provisions of the Act require that before a company ships goods, it must check that the motor carrier it plans to use is properly registered, has adequate insurance, and complies with federal safety standards.
