Summary
The Stop Scamming Truckers Act forces any private company that sends a written or digital message about USDOT number registration, renewal, or compliance to include a clear disclaimer that it is not a federal agency. It also bans misleading logos or claims that payment is required for a USDOT number. Truckers and other motor carriers can sue for violations and collect statutory damages.
