Report Link FMCSA's "Comprehensive Safety Analysis 2010" Signals More Inspections and Sanctions.Jackson Lewis LLP - November 02, 2009 A new safety compliance program for the Nation’s trucking and busing employers, and the drivers they employ, will result in far more inspections — and likely more violations and penalties — than ever before, when the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration implements its “Comprehensive Safety Analysis 2010” (CSA 2010) in July 2010. FMCSA touts CSA 2010 as a “new national safety initiative to more effectively identify and quickly intervene with large truck and bus drivers and carriers who are not complying with safety rules.” The new program will result in more “interventions,” i.e., more warning letters, roadside inspections, on-site inspections at a carrier’s place of business, as well as more serious actions, such as notices of violations, notices of claims (penalties) and operations out-of-service orders.
