CDL Schools Challenge FMCSA Removal

On October 16, 2026, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) published new administrative orders involving commercial driving schools removed from its Training Provider Registry (TPR).

CDL Lab LLC, International Truck Driving School, and Go4CDL LLC are challenging their emergency removals.

FMCSA issued orders requiring responses to their petitions for administrative review.

The agency also published a decision dismissing an appeal from MT Training Center LLC.

These actions are part of federal proceedings involving schools removed from the registry.

An order requiring a response does not mean a school has been reinstated.

!What This Means for CDL Drivers

Students planning to obtain a CDL should verify that their driving school and specific training location are listed in FMCSA's Training Provider Registry.

Training with a provider that is not authorized can create problems meeting federal Entry-Level Driver Training (ELDT) requirements.

Students attending schools involved in these proceedings should check the school's current registration status before continuing or paying for training.
