Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge GARLAND.
GARLAND, Circuit Judge:
In order to ensure highway safety and protect driver health, Congress has charged the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration with regulating the hours of commercial motor vehicle operators. In 2005, the agency promulgated a final rule revising its existing regulations in a number of respects. Two groups — one led by Public Citizen and the other by the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association — now seek review of the portion of the rule that applies to long-haul truck drivers.
We reject the challenges raised…
