Regulations

Based on comments from the public, as well as through DOT’s annual review of its existing regulations, DOT developed a plan of action to review its existing rules to revise or revoke them.

DOT has rulemakings across all modes of transportation - from unmanned aircraft  to nearly silent electric cars that still keep pedestrians with visual impairments safer.

DOT has joined with the Cornell e-Rulemaking Initiative in a pilot project to explore ways to use the Internet, blogging, and social media to help ease and encourage greater public participation in DOT rulemaking.
