CSA 2010: What’s
Changing?



New Measurement System
• Assesses safety of carriers and drivers based on unsafe
behaviors that lead to crashes
– Calculates safety performance based on 7 Behavior Analysis and Safety
Improvement Categories (BASICs)
– Weights time and severity of violations based on relation to crash risk
– Uses crash records and all safety-based violations observed at roadside
• Measures carrier safety performance with enhanced
information available to investigators relative to individual
driver performance
• In the future, measurement scores would support future
Safety Fitness Determinations (currently in rulemaking,
initial rollout of CSA 2010 is not dependent on rule)


New Agency Plans for Drivers

• The new Carrier Measurement System provides
internal tools, including enhanced information on
individual drivers, to investigators to more effectively
and efficiently conduct carrier investigations
– Tools allow for targeted sampling using enhanced driver
information
– Follow up on serious violations
• Under CSA 2010, individual drivers will not be
assigned safety ratings or safety fitness determinations



New Agency Plans for Drivers (cont’d)

• Other Agency initiatives are underway, including
the Pre-employment Screening Program (PSP)
– PSP was mandated by Congress and is not a part of CSA
2010
– “Driver Profiles” from FMCSA’s Driver
Information Resource (DIR) will be available to
carriers through PSP
– Driver Profiles will only be released with driver
authorization


New Interventions Process
The New Interventions Process addresses the…
• WHAT
Discovering violations and
defining the problem
• WHY
Identifying the cause or
where the processes broke down
• HOW
Determining how to fix it/prevent it through use of
Safety Management Cycle and Safety Improvement
Resources



Safety Management Cycle


New Intervention Toolbox

• New intervention tools reach more carriers and
influence safety compliance earlier
• CSA 2010 also introduces a new tool to warn
carriers ahead of time if they have a safety
problem:
– Warning Letters
• CSA 2010 introduces three investigations types:
– Offsite Investigations
– Onsite Investigations –Focused
– Onsite Investigations –Comprehensive


New Intervention Toolbox (cont’d)

• CSA 2010 introduces additional follow-on
corrective actions to increase carrier safety
compliance
− Cooperative Safety Plan (CSP)
− Increased use of Notice of Violation (NOV)

• CSA 2010 is strong on enforcement and continues
to employ the use of:
− Notice of Claim (NOC)
− Operations Out-of-Service Order (OOS)


New Information Supplied to Roadside
Inspectors

• SMS BASICs will replace SafeStat’s Safety
Evaluation Area (SEA) data sent to Roadside
Inspectors
– Assist in determining level of inspection
– North American Standard (NAS) inspections do not
change



Supplementary Agency
Efforts



Roadside Data Uniformity

• Data collected at the roadside is the foundation of all
data driven traffic safety initiatives
• CSA 2010 relies on roadside data in its SMS
Methodology
• The CSA 2010 SFD methodology would use roadside
data as a component of safety fitness determinations


Roadside Uniformity-Background

• Effort organized into four core initiatives:
1. Consistent documentation of roadside inspection and
violation data
2. Standardized processes for challenging data
3. Increased awareness of high level goals of the inspection
program
a) Good inspections can support systematic enforcement
program
b) Screening vs. Inspection
4. Uniform inspection selection processes

FMCSA Data Quality

• Quality data is key to CSA 2010 Operational
Model
• Comprehensive data quality program initiated
over 5 years ago
• Current data is useful and meaningful;
improvements can always be made
• DataQs Systems provides the public the
opportunity to challenge the accuracy of state
reported data (https://dataqs.fmcsa.dot.gov)

quality of state reported crash and inspection data

Data Corrections (DataQs)

DataQs Data Challenges
Feb 2004 – Nov 2009

~67,000 Data challenges filed (65% resulting in data updates)
~1,700 New challenges per month
~30,000 General public/motor carrier registrations
~870 new general public/motor carrier registrations per month

CSA 2010: What Can
Carriers do to Prepare?



Educate Yourselves and Your Employees

• Understand SMS Methodology
• Understand the BASICs
• Check the website for more information and
updates (http://csa2010.fmcsa.dot.gov )
• Raise drivers’ awareness that every
inspection counts and every violation counts



Review and Update Your Data
• Ensure Motor Carrier Census (MCS-150 Form) is
up-to-date and accurate
• Routinely monitor and review inspection and crash
data
– Data currently available through FMCSA’s Portal
– Agency currently exploring option to give motor carrier’s the
ability to review their safety data organized by BASIC prior to
SMS launch; more information will be available in early 2010
• Question potentially incorrect data (DataQs)
• Maintain copies of inspection reports and evidence
related to any observed violations

Examine Business Processes

• Compare past violations to severity weightings
• Know why your trucks are getting inspected
• Understand where problem areas may exist by
identifying trends or patterns
• Implement policies and practices now to
address problem areas



CSA 2010: What Can
Drivers do to Prepare?



Recommended Driver Actions

• Understand the BASICs and new methodology
• Maintain copies of inspection reports
• Become knowledgeable about employers’ safety records by
checking carrier safety information at SafeStat on line
• Know and follow safety rules and regulations
– CMV web-based driving tips can be found at
http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/about/outreach/education/driverTips/index.
htm
• Check the CSA 2010 website for more information and
updates (http://csa2010.fmcsa.dot.gov )



In Summary

• CSA 2010 will introduce new concepts to the motor carrier
industry and to drivers:
– New measurement system
– New intervention process
– New information at roadside
• The Agency has additional programs on-going that will
benefit this data-driven operational model:
– Roadside Data Uniformity
– Data Quality
• There are many steps that motor carriers and drivers can
take today to prepare for CSA 2010 roll-out in the summer
of 2010

What’s Next?

• Provide us your feedback via the poll questions to follow
• Visit the web site to find answers to your remaining
questions
– Search our frequently asked questions by key word
– Review our fact sheets, brochures, briefings and the SMS methodology
document
– Look for a document in January that categorizes, consolidates and
answers many Listening Session questions
– If you still have a question, please send it to us through the feedback link
on the web site!
