Department of Transportation regulations are under title?

• A. 46 CFR
• B. 49 CFR
• C. 29 CFR
• D. 40 CFR

Answer: (B)

Department of Transportation regulations are under Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The CFR organizes federal rules by broad subjects called titles, with each title housing the rules issued by the responsible agency. Since the DOT handles transportation safety, vehicle and hazmat rules, its regulations are placed in Title 49. Other areas are covered by different titles—for example, maritime rules are found in a different title, OSHA standards sit in another, and environmental rules are in yet another. This structure helps you know where to look for DOT requirements: in Title 49.
