🚨 OHIO FUEL TAX HOLIDAY: WHAT TRUCKING COMPANIES NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IFTA

Ohio's 90-day motor fuel tax holiday begins October 4, 2026 and runs through January 2, 2027.

During that period, Ohio's state fuel tax will drop from:
⛽ Gasoline: 38.5¢ per gallon
🚛 Diesel: 47¢ per gallon
to essentially zero.

That's great news at the pump — but IFTA carriers need to pay attention.

Under IFTA, the fuel tax you ultimately owe is based on the miles your trucks travel in each jurisdiction, with credit given for fuel taxes actually paid when purchasing fuel.

👉 That means fuel purchased in Ohio during the tax holiday will provide very little Ohio fuel-tax credit compared with normal purchases.

If your trucks buy inexpensive fuel in Ohio but travel significant miles in states where the normal fuel tax still applies, your IFTA balance due could look very different than usual.

Our recommendation: Keep accurate fuel receipts and mileage records, especially for purchases surrounding October 4 and the end of the holiday in January.

And if you'd rather not figure out how all of these temporary tax changes affect your IFTA return, Humphrey Transportation Compliance can handle the filing for you.

We prepare and file IFTA tax returns for motor carriers and make sure the correct mileage, gallons and tax rates are used.

DID YOU KNOW? IFTA isn't the only fuel/mileage tax you might owe.

These 5 states have their own weight-distance or highway use tax. If you run through them, you need to be registered before you go:

🚛 CONNECTICUT – Trucks 26,000 lbs or more: Highway Use Fee permit, quarterly returns, copy of permit in each truck
🚛 KENTUCKY – 60,000 lbs or more: KYU license
🚛 NEW MEXICO – Over 26,000 lbs: Weight distance tax permit
🚛 NEW YORK – Over 18,000 lbs: HUT registration and decal displayed on the truck
🚛 OREGON – Over 26,000 lbs: Weight-mile tax account, weight receipt carried in the truck

Running without them can mean fines and being put out of service at the scale.

Not sure which ones apply to your fleet? We handle KYU, NY HUT, NM, Oregon and CT filings so you don't have to.

FMCSA Grants HOS Waiver for Fuel Haulers 🚛⛽

FMCSA just issued an Hours-of-Service waiver for motor carriers and drivers transporting gasoline and diesel fuel — effective now through December 16, 2026.

Key relief under the waiver:

• Drivers may drive up to 16 hours in a 24-hour period (up from the standard 11)
• Requires a 6-hour sleeper berth break (or 8-hour off-duty break with no sleeper berth) each 24 hours
• A 10-hour break is required once a driver hits 14 hours combined waiver/normal operations
• Carriers with a conditional safety rating, an active OOS order, or drivers under OOS/disqualification are NOT eligible
• Crash notification to FMCSA within 2 business days is mandatory
• Drivers must carry a copy of the waiver and present it to law enforcement on request

This does NOT waive drug/alcohol testing, CDL, insurance, hazmat, or size/weight requirements — those still apply in full.

If your fleet hauls fuel, now's the time to review your safety rating and OOS status before relying on this flexibility. Questions on how this applies to your operation? Reach out — that's what we're here for.

🚛 Brake Safety Week is here — August 23-29

CVSA inspectors are running brake-focused roadside inspections all week, with extra attention on brake drums and air disc brake rotors. Brake violations are the #1 reason trucks get put out of service, and last year about 15% of vehicles inspected during this week didn't pass.

A few reminders for drivers before you roll out:

✅ Do the full air brake test every day — governor cut-in/cut-out, static leak-down, low air warning, spring brake pop-out, tractor protection and service brake check
✅ Listen for air leaks with the system charged and the engine off
✅ Get under the truck and check slack adjusters, chambers, hoses, drums/rotors, and linings
✅ Don't skip the trailer, even on a drop-and-hook — it's still your inspection
✅ Bleed the tanks — water and oil cause valve and adjustment problems fast
✅ Test your brakes at low speed leaving the yard

Found a defect? Report it and document it on your DVIR before you operate. Never take a truck out with a known brake problem.

Stay safe out there this week. 🛑

🚩 Would your company pass a DOT safety compliance audit today?

Some violations can trigger immediate corrective action, fines, safety-rating changes, or even put a carrier at risk of being shut down.

Common audit problems include:

• Operating with an invalid, suspended, or revoked CDL
• Missing or incomplete drug & alcohol testing requirements
• Using a driver before a negative pre-employment drug test
• Missing driver qualification files
• Falsified Hours-of-Service records
• Not using an ELD when required
• Problems with annual inspection documentation
• Missing Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse queries or consent records

Auditors may also review roadside violations involving brakes, tires, lights, inspections, seat belts, HOS, and other safety issues.

The best time to find a compliance problem is before DOT finds it for you.

Humphrey Transportation Compliance, LLC helps motor carriers identify compliance issues and stay prepared.

Three FMCSA rules just changed — and they may simplify a few things for your fleet.

✔ No more self-reporting out-of-state tickets
CDL holders no longer have to manually report out-of-state traffic convictions. States now exchange that information electronically.

✔ The paper ELD manual is no longer required
Drivers do not need to keep a physical copy of the ELD manual in the truck. They still need to know how to operate the device and produce records during a roadside inspection.

✔ Roadside inspection reports only go where requested
Carriers and intermodal equipment providers now only have to submit completed inspection reports to states that specifically request them.

These are final rules effective July 22, 2026 — not proposals.

Also important: FMCSA’s new MOTUS system is now live for registration and authority filings, replacing the older URS, Licensing & Insurance and Portal systems. Portal Company Officials will need to log in with their FMCSA Login.gov credentials and claim their USDOT number.

Questions about what these changes mean for your company? Give us a call.

Important Ohio CDL Update

Ohio BMV will be mailing notices to approximately 5,000 non-domiciled CDL holders due to updated FMCSA eligibility rules.

Some drivers may receive a CDL downgrade notice. If the issue is not corrected, their CDL could be downgraded to a regular Class D license 30 days after receiving the notice.

Motor carriers should make sure any affected drivers are checking their mail and responding immediately.

This does not apply to most Ohio CDL holders or CDL holders with permanent legal residence.
