You can expect an unusually high volume of carrier changes, with elevated activity continuing through the weekend. Depending on your business rules, some carriers may be decertified. No action is needed on your part.

Update timeline

  1. investigating Aug 18, 2026, 04:37 PM UTC

    For RMIS Customers: We've identified an unusually large number of changes in yesterday's Motus file, including some that appear unintentional — for example, a large number of records where data in a specific field is now blank. As a result, we've paused ingestion of Census data while we investigate. We are in contact with the FMCSA to confirm whether these changes are accurate. They've confirmed they're investigating on their end as well. We'll continue to post updates as we learn more.
