CVISN Safety Information Exchange, Nogales Port of Entry

摘要

This project will assist the State of Arizona in determining the trucking industry's safety and security violators without inconveniencing the compliant vehicles and without serving as a roadblock to legitimate trade, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) technologies are a vital tool in helping to solve this problem. ITS can simplify the task of separating high-risk from low-risk motor carriers and shipments. Advanced knowledge about the driver, shipment, and carrier allows the authorities to make a quick assessment of the risk involved in permitting entry into the United States. Advanced information that is exchanged between authorities in a timely, cost-effective, and secure manner allows enforcement agencies to conduct their risk assessments and determine which carriers, vehicles, and drivers need to be inspected. The ability to identify the high-risk vehicles, drivers, and shipments in advance is invaluable to both the inspectors and the freight motor carrier drivers. It not only makes it possible to conduct more thorough inspections, it also allows compliant vehicles to move through the process quickly. With the help of technology, increased security and safety is achieved, resulting in faster movement of trade and lower risk to the motoring public. In order to identify the technologies most appropriate in supporting connectivity between the vehicles, the roadside, and the administrative office process and systems, this research will include a canvassing of the literature related to ITS, Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO), and CVISN.
