Common Sense Fix Sought To Remove Faulty CSA Data

摘要

In comments filed with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), the American Trucking Associations (ATA) again urged the agency to make a common sense change to its Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) safety measurement system—the removal of crashes trucking companies and their drivers did not cause. "ATA identified the inclusion of all crashes, regardless of responsibility, as a serious shortcoming of the Compliance, Safety, Accountability system over five years ago," the trucking group said in comments it filed on March 25. "It is illogical, and a poor use of scarce enforcement resources, to label carriers as unsafe based on crashes they did not cause."
