We the people ask the federal government to Change an existing Administration policy:

Repeal all federal regulations that require trucks and other vehicles to use "back-up beepers"

Created by G.C. on July 29, 2016

Current federal regulations require the use of loud back-up beepers when trucks and other vehicles move in reverse. See, e.g., 29 C.F.R. § 1926.601(b)(4). It's well-documented that these beepers do not prevent accidents and instead only contribute to noise pollution. We the people request that the Department of Labor repeal all regulations requiring the use of back-up beepers and instead promulgate new regulations prohibiting them.
