Law 99-570) [49 U.S.C. § 521, Appendix §§ 2304, 2701-2716; repealed] and reduce or prevent commercial motor vehicle accidents, fatalities and injuries by: (1) Permitting commercial drivers to hold only 1 license; (2) Disqualifying commercial drivers who have committed certain serious traffic violations, or other specified offenses; (3) Strengthening commercial driver licensing and testing standards. (b) This chapter is a remedial law and shall be liberally construed to promote the public health, safety and welfare.
