FMCSA study: Crash accountability analysis expensive, would not improve CSA

2015-01-22 14:14:01| Trucking - Topix.net

Even though 9 in 10 police accident reports contain the type of information needed to determine fault in truck crashes, a study by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has concluded that incorporating such determinations would be time-consuming and expensive, and would not improve the agency's ability to identify those carriers most at risk of future accidents. The report , made public Wednesday, comes in response to trucking industry criticism that the Compliance, Safety, Accountability system for evaluating carrier safety does not distinguish between accidents in which the truck or truck driver is to blame and accidents in which the truck clearly was not at fault.
