What makes eRegs different
Built for the people who actually live with these regulations.

Not a PDF viewer. Not just a search box. A purpose-built compliance reading environment — with the guidance layer that makes the difference.

FMCSA Guidance Built In
Official FMCSA interpretations and guidance letters surface inline as you read — right where they're relevant, not buried in a separate search.
Always Current
Regulation text syncs directly from eCFR.gov. Every update, every amendment — automatically reflected. You'll never read an outdated version again.
Highlights & Notes
Annotate any paragraph with highlights and notes. Everything syncs across your devices and stays attached to the right section even when text changes.
Full-Text Search
Search across all 18 covered parts in milliseconds. Find the regulation you need without knowing the part number or section — just describe what you're looking for.
Trucksafe Educational Content
Videos, articles, and podcasts from Trucksafe Consulting appear directly alongside the regulations they explain. No jumping between tabs.
Change Notifications
When a regulation you've annotated changes, eRegs detects the amendment and alerts you — so you always know when the rules you care about are updated.

Per driver after the one-time $4 invite
I used to have to keep a physical book at my desk and manually check for updates. With eRegs I just open it and know I'm reading the current version. The FMCSA guidance cards alone are worth the subscription.

Safety Director, Mid-size Carrier
We save hundreds a year on regulation books. I send drivers an eRegs invite, they accept on their phone, and I download the acknowledgement receipt. It takes about two minutes per driver.

For Fleet Safety Managers
Stop buying regulation books.

Federal regulations don't require physical books — they require that you provide and instruct drivers on the regulations. eRegs is built for exactly this.
