Is the statement 'Determination pending is only for interstate' true or false?

The statement 'Determination pending is only for interstate' is false. The concept of "determination pending" refers to the status of an application or request that is still under review and has not yet been finalized. This status can apply to both interstate and intrastate operations.

In the context of FMCSA guidelines, determinations regarding safety ratings, operating authority, and other regulatory decisions can affect carriers operating within the same state (intrastate) as well as those operating between states (interstate). Thus, the application of "determination pending" is not limited solely to interstate situations, making the correct understanding that it can pertain to both.
