COMPREHENSIVE SAFETY ANALYSIS 2010 (CSA)

New Safety Measurement System vs. Safestat

The purpose of the CSA 2010 initiative is to develop more effective and efficient methods for FMCSA, together with industry and state partners, to achieve its mission of reducing commercial motor vehicle (CMV) crashes, fatalities, and injuries.

Key Features of CSA 2010 are to:

• Increase the opportunity to have contact with more carriers and drivers;
• Use more and better data to improve performance measurements for identifying high risk carrier and driver behaviors; and
• Apply a wide range of interventions to correct these high risk behaviors before they become chronic and habitual.
