Intermodal operators include those that transport an intermodal container or containers. This type of transportation involves the transportation of freight in an intermodal container or vehicle, using multiple modes of transportation (e.g., rail, ship, and truck), without any handling of the freight itself when changing modes. Some equipment includes an intermodal chassis, intermodal terminals, and other equipment for moving and transporting freight containers. Adherence to federal regulations for intermodal equipment operators and motor carriers is overseen by the Department of Transportation's FMCSA which is tasked with monitoring and enforcing compliance with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) and the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) governing both safety and financial responsibility. Properly complying with FMSCA's regulations for motor carrier safety helps promote general highway safety as for-hire carriers and commercial motor vehicle operators can cause serious death or injury to passengers and other drivers on the road.
