USDOT Numbers

 

There have been some changes in the regulations for USDOT numbers. Apparently the latest regulation (2006) no longer requires the inclusion of your city and state information on the vehicle. However, you are still obliged to have the correct company name on the vehicle. There are also some requirements for those with ICC numbers to add USDOT numbers to their vehicles.
