Abstract:

PREFACE ; This report was undertaken to define an improved process for motor carrier safety fitness determination. It was produced by the Research and Special Program Administration's (RSPA} John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (the Volpe Center} for the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA} Office of Motor Carriers (OMC). At the OMC, the project was managed by Dale Sienicki of the Office of Motor Carrier Information Analysis. The technical project manager at the Volpe Center was Donald Wright of the Office Research and Analysis who, with Jon Ohman and David Madsen, conducted the research and prepared this report. Assistance, advice, and support for this work has been forthcoming from within the OMC, the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec, several state agencies, as well as shippers and motor carriers. ; The improved process described herein is the result of a multi-year research effort that began in April 1993. It consists of a comprehensive, integrated approach to determining motor carrier safety fitness and applying a safety improvement process. The improved process encompasses all OMC safety fitness determination requirements; it is not just a fine tuning of the current process or a new rating methodology proposal.
