SEC. 212. COMMERCIAL VAN RULEMAKING.
Not later than 1 year after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall complete Department of Transportation’s rulemaking, Docket No. FHWA–99–5710, to amend Federal motor carrier safety regulations to determine which motor carriers operating commercial motor vehicles designed or used to transport between 9 and 15 passengers (including the driver) for compensation shall be covered. At a minimum, the rulemaking shall apply such regulations to—
(1) commercial vans commonly referred to as ‘‘camionetas’’; and
(2) those commercial vans operating in interstate commerce outside commercial zones that have been determined to pose serious safety risks.
In no case should the rulemaking exempt from such regulations all motor carriers operating commercial vehicles designed or used to transport between 9 and 15 passengers (including the driver) for compensation.
