Hours of service

Review section
This FA (2008 promotion) has some significant issues with respect to sourcing and comprehensiveness. The article is predominantly sourced to primary sources, such as regulations and government websites: never a good sign. A quick Google Scholar search finds a significant amount of secondary coverage, much of it recent, that isn't used. See for just a few examples; an in-depth examination would likely find much more. The dearth of scholarly sourcing is problematic on its own, but it also results in an article that spends more time repeating the text of government regulations than it does summarizing encyclopedically the various perspectives on the subject. There are also issues with uncited text (e.g. in the "Rewriting the Hours of Service" section), bare URLs/incomplete citations, and due-weight/currency concerns noted by in his talk-page notice. Since there have been no significant improvements since notice was given almost three months ago, the article's featured status ought to be reviewed.
