Abstract:As a part of its risk management efforts, the Office of Motor Carriers sponsored a risk-based evaluation of roadside violations. This tech brief summarizes the study final report. The evaluation sought to categorize each commercial motor vehicle (CMV) roadside violation according to the potential risk posed by the conditions covered by the violation. Risk was defined as the likelihood that a violation would be a contributing factor to a crash or hazardous material (HM) release or exposure. The resulting categorization was designed to distinguish among violations that contribute to a significant, immediate risk of a crash or HM incident; violations that pose less significant risks; and violations that pose little or no risk. 4 p.
