April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month—and the stakes couldn’t be higher.

For commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers, even a moment of distraction behind the wheel of an 80,000-pound vehicle can have devastating consequences.

Professional drivers know that focus isn’t optional—it’s essential. Distractions go beyond texting; they include anything that takes your eyes, hands, or mind off driving.

🚛 Why is matters for CMV drivers

Attention drivers:

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is making the transition to electronic medical certification a little easier.

✅ From April 11 to October 11, 2026, you can continue using your paper Medical Examiner’s Certificate as proof of certification for up to 60 days after it’s issued.

This gives you extra time while systems move to secure electronic records under NRII.

💡 Tip: Keep your paper certificate with you, even as your examiner submits your results electronically.

🚨FMCSA Removes one ELD from Registered List 🚨

Today, FMCSA removed one Electronic Logging Device (ELD) from its list of approved devices for use in commercial motor vehicles.

“Devices that don’t meet federal standards will be removed from FMCSA’s registered list. Since January 2025, we’ve already taken off more than 56 devices, and we’ll keep going to protect the integrity of the ELD program and to keep America’s roads safe,” said FMCSA Administrator Derek D. Barrs.

Drivers using the revoked ELD must switch to paper logs immediately.
Motor carriers have 60 days to replace the device.

Yep, keep it between the mayonnaise and the mustard, and whatever you do … don’t slip off the bun!

🚨 Jerome PD Traffic Tip (Yes, We’re Being Serious) 🚨

We’ve heard the feedback.

“Be more serious.”
“Post actual traffic safety information.”

So here you go.

A legitimate traffic tip.

And it’s not even Tuesday.

You are required to keep your vehicle
between the mayonnaise and the mustard.

That’s the white fog line and the yellow centerline.

What you are NOT supposed to do
is slide off the bun and into the side dish.

If you can’t see mayonnaise…

If you can’t see mustard…

If your trailer is attempting liftoff while your cab is becoming one with the ecosystem…

You have exited the sandwich.

You’re welcome for the traffic tip.

See? We can be serious. 🥪

“66”

I fell in love with a man called Tom.
Who lives with a passion, all but gone
He is a man of his word
With God's truth, he does gird,
He stands strong and is no man's pawn.

Today is the day,
That he came to stay
66 years ago, to this earth
March 23rd, the day of his birth
He definitely knows how to make hay!

So join with me now
As he takes a bow
And wish him the best
As I treat him like a guest
And give him a day he's sure to wow.

Happy Birthday to the love of my life,
Your faithful, lovable, forever for all time wife!
