The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration forcefully defended its Electronic Logging Device rule in a court brief filed June 15. The 60-page brief was filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit on the last due it was due, per a deadline set by the court. FMCSA argued in its brief that contrary to OOIDA's legal challenge, the ELD rule is constitutional as it does not violate the Fourth Amendment prohibition of unreasonable searches.
