FAQ
The CSA program was implemented by the FMCSA in 2010 to enhance safety and compliance in the trucking industry by increasing contact with carriers and drivers and improving performance measurements.
The seven BASICs categories are Unsafe Driving, Hours-of-Service Compliance, Driver Fitness, Controlled Substances and Alcohol, Vehicle Maintenance, Hazardous Materials Compliance, and Crash Indicators.
Safety performance is measured using the Safety Measurement System (SMS), which evaluates data from roadside inspections, carrier audits, and crashes, assigning weights based on the severity and recency of violations.
Poor safety ratings can lead to increased scrutiny from the FMCSA, higher insurance premiums, and potential loss of employment for drivers due to a negative safety profile.
Drivers can improve their CSA scores by adhering to safety regulations, maintaining their vehicles properly, following hours-of-service rules, and avoiding violations during roadside inspections.
