• Abstract:
  Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) utilize information, communication, sensor and control technologies to improve mobility, safety and productivity. The Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO) program, one of several components of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) initiative, is designed to accelerate the use of advanced transportation technologies to improve highway safety and increase productivity for the motor carrier industry. In April 1996, the ITS/CVO Division of the Office of Motor Carriers (OMC) introduced a Five-Year Plan further defining its existing ITS/CVO program. The ITS/CVO Division’s Plan for the next five years (1997 - 2002) focuses on the use of information and technologies that will allow commercial motor vehicles and drivers to be screened, identified, and checked electronically. This effort will increase motor vehicle safety on our highways by developing and using Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), along with cost-effective methods and technologies that will streamline State regulatory, enforcement and motor carrier practices. During the next five years, the ITS/CVO division will focus on the development and deployment of technologies and information system components that will target high-risk carriers, vehicles and drivers.
