The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) updated the status of four electronic logging devices (ELDs) today, placing them in their list of Revoked Devices. These devices were placed on the Revoked Devices list due to their affiliated companies' failure to meet compliance standards as outlined in Title 49 CFR Appendix A to Subpart B of Part 395.
This removal is effective immediately and applies to the devices listed below:
ELD Provider: Top Tracking System LLC
Device Name: P3TS
Model Number: P3TS
ELD Identifier: TTSP3T
ELD Provider: Forward Thinking Systems LLC
Device Name: Forward Thinking Systems—Field Warrior ELD (BYOD)
Model Number: FW-BYOD
ELD Identifier: FTSFW1
ELD Provider: Forward Thinking Systems LLC
Device Name: Forward Thinking Systems—Field Warrior ELD (Garmin)
Model Number: FW-Garmin
ELD Identifier: FTSFW2
ELD Provider: Midwestern Logistics LLC
Device Name: DYNAMIC ELD
Model Number: DYMIC
ELD Identifier: DRS242
What Motor Carriers Need to Do
Per FMCSA regulations, motor carriers will have up to 60 days replace their revoked devices with compliant ones. The FMCSA will also send out an industry-wide email to inform motor carriers that anyone using these devices must:
- Discontinue using the revoked ELD and revert to paper logs or logging software to record required hours of service data.
- Replace the revoked ELD with a compliant ELD from the Registered Devices list before March 1, 2026.
Enforcement Timeline
Prior to March 1, 2026: Safety officials will be encouraged not to cite drivers using these revoked ELDs for 395.8(a)(1) - "No record of duty status" or 395.22(a) – "Failing to use a registered ELD." Instead, safety officials should request the driver's paper logs, logging software, or use the ELD display as a back-up method to review the hours-of-service data.
Beginning March 1, 2026: Motor carriers who continue to use the revoked devices listed above will be considered as operating without an ELD. Safety officials who encounter a driver using a revoked device on or after March 1, 2026 should cite 395.8(a)(1), and place the driver out-of-service in accordance with the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance OOS Criteria.
Potential Reinstatement
If the ELD provider corrects all identified deficiencies for its device, FMCSA will place the ELD back on the list of registered devices and inform the industry of the update.
However, FMCSA strongly encourages motor carriers to take the actions listed above now to avoid compliance issues in the event that the deficiencies are not addressed by the ELD provider.
