AuthorityStuck is an independent publication operated by CLEARDEAL LLC. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) or the U.S. Department of Transportation. “Motus” is the name of FMCSA's registration system and is used here descriptively, to identify the system this site helps carriers navigate.
Everything here is general educational information about registration processes — not legal advice, not compliance certification, and not a substitute for FMCSA's official guidance or a qualified transportation attorney.
Statements about FMCSA policy, suspensions, deadlines, and system behavior are dated and sourced on the page where they appear (agency notices, agency fraud alerts, or named trade-press reporting). FMCSA changes guidance without notice to us; facts stated here were believed current as of the page's date. Verify anything time-sensitive at motus.dot.gov or fmcsa.dot.gov.
Where a page describes a step as carrier-reported or practitioner-reported, it is a practice reported by carriers or compliance practitioners — not an FMCSA-documented procedure — and results may differ. FMCSA-documented procedures are stated as such.
FMCSA decides every registration matter on its own records. No page on this site guarantees that a filing, correction, reinstatement, or escalation will succeed or occur within any timeframe. Wait times quoted are reported ranges, not commitments.
