What are chameleon carriers?

Chameleon carriers are motor carriers that attempt to evade regulatory oversight or consequences by closing an existing operation and reappearing under a new name or business identity. This practice can allow problematic carriers to conceal connections to previous safety or compliance issues. The SAFE Act seeks to give FMCSA stronger tools for identifying potentially related carrier registrations and preventing companies from using new identities to escape accountability.
