FMCSA requests public comment on Aurora Operations, Inc.'s (Aurora) application for a five-year exemption to allow commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) equipped with a Level 4 automated driving system (ADS) to use a set of cab-mounted warning beacons in lieu of placing reflective warning triangles or fusees around the stopped vehicle. The exemption would apply to Aurora and to other motor carriers operating Level 4 ADS-equipped CMVs that notify FMCSA in writing prior to operating under the exemption. FMCSA is required by statute to publish a notice explaining each exemption request, and such notice does not indicate what decision FMCSA will ultimately reach on the request. After reviewing the application, safety analyses, and public comments submitted, FMCSA will grant or deny the exemption.
