What is the difference between intrastate and interstate HOS rules?

The main difference between intrastate and interstate HOS rules lies in the governing authority and operational scope:

• Governed by the FMCSA.

• Apply to operations crossing state or national borders.

• Uniform rules, including the 11-hour driving limit and 14-hour workday.

Intrastate HOS Rules:

• Set by individual states and may differ from federal regulations.

• Apply to drivers operating exclusively within a single state.

• Some states allow longer driving or work hours than federal rules.
