The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration removed three devices from the agency’s list of registered electronic logging devices, or ELDs.
Keep Tracking, Rollingtrans ELD - ACCURATE ONE, and RT ELD Plus - ACCURATE PLUS devices were placed on the Revoked Devices list due to the companies’ failure to meet the minimum requirements established in 49 CFR part 395, subpart B, appendix A. The removals are effective November 18, 2024.

If the ELD providers correct all identified deficiencies for their devices, FMCSA will place the ELDs back on the list of registered devices and inform the industry of the update.
Motor carriers that use these revoked ELDs must take the following steps:
Discontinue using the revoked ELDs and revert to paper logs or logging software to record required hours of service data.
Replace the revoked ELDs with compliant ELDs from the Registered Devices list before January 17, 2025.

Motor carriers have up to 60 days to replace the revoked ELDs with compliant ELDs.
During this time, safety officials are encouraged not to cite drivers using these revoked ELDs for 395.8(a)(1) – “No record of duty status” or 395.22(a) – “Failing to use a registered ELD.” Instead, safety officials should request the driver’s paper logs, logging software, or use the ELD display as a back-up method to review the hours of service data.
Beginning January 17, 2025, motor carriers who continue to use the revoked devices listed above will be considered as operating without an ELD and the driver can be placed out-of-service in accordance with the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance OOS Criteria.
