Safety: CSA 2010

In 2010, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration began rolling out a new comprehensive Safety Management system. The new program, CSA 2010, measures carriers in 7 categories, now called BASICS. Any carrier that is deficient in 2 or more BASICS will receive some type of intervention from the FMCSA...The 7 BASICS are:

Driver fitness
Unsafe driving
Fatigued driving
Controlled substances/Alcohol
Crash Indicator
Vehicle maintenance
Improper loading/cargo secure

Expert Prediction

It is estimated that 25-30% of the carriers in the industry will receive some type of intervention. Interventions can be anything from targeted roadside inspections to a full blown compliance review.

Why Best?

Best Transportation Services is proud to announce that we are "not deficient" in any of the 7 BASICS.
