Excerpt from Legislation to Preempt State Motor Carrier Regulations Pertaining to Rates, Routes, and Services (103-80): Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Surface Transportation of the Committee on Public Works and Transportation, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session; July 20, 1994 Under the Interstate Commerce Act, private motor carriers that transport freight for compensation within the corporate family are exempt from regulation by the Interstate Commerce Commission. For the transportation to be exempt, the affected subsidiaries within the corporate family must be owned 100 percent by the parent company. The current exemption applies only to interstate transportation. However. If the transportation begins and ends in a single state, state regulations apply. At present, 31 states prohibit compensated intercorporate transportation on an unregulated basis. This provision would require states to recognize the exemption for compensated intercorporate transportation that now exists in the Interstate Commerce Act.
