Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced that nearly 3,000 commercial driver’s license (CDL) training providers have been removed from a federal registry as part of the crackdown on illegal test training centers, the Department of Transportation (DOT) said in a statement on Dec. 1.

The changes were made in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s (FMCSA’s) Training Provider Registry, which lists all centers authorized to offer entry-level driver training (ELDT), whose regulations set the minimum federal training requirements that entry-level drivers must complete.
