CSA Compliance for CMV Drivers

The complete Compliance Safety presentation for CMV drivers outlining the new regulations and their enforcement as well as commonly asked questions.

What is CSA?

• Improves the efficiency and effectiveness of FMCSA
• Reduces commercial motor vehicle (CMV) crashes, fatalities, and injuries.

CSA introduces three new components to FMCSA’s enforcement and compliance model:

• The Safety Measurement System (SMS) replaces SafeStat
• The intervention process augments CRs
• New approach to the Safety Fitness Determination (SFD)

New Measurement System – Driver Information 

• All violations count toward a carrier’s score –If received while driving for that  carrier

• Only violations within the control of the driver (as deemed by the agency) count toward a driver’s safety profile – For example: speeding, Hours-of-Service violations, etc.
• Carriers cannot see the historic driver safety profile –Carriers can only see the violations received while the driver was employed by the driver’s current company
