ANALYSIS * USA - New CSA: Risk up for small carriers
One in five carriers is still at risk of an intervention even under the new CSA 2010 procedures
Brookfield,WI,USA -Fleet Owner, by Wendy Leavitt -Aug 18, 2010: ... According to a report issued this week by auditing service Rair. The company did another in-depth analysis of more than 60,000 fleets to gauge how the risk factors for carriers were impacted by the revisions the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) recently made to CSA 2010... Using essentially the same methodology as the federal government, RAIR uncovered some significant changes, according to JJ Singh, CEO, but one thing remained the same: 20% of carriers overall are still at risk of an intervention. The big difference is that the smallest fleets (1-5 vehicles) saw their increase by half. It rose from 10 to 15%, according to the report. Fleets with 6-15 vehicles also saw a slight increase - from a 23% risk of intervention to a 25% risk. At the same time, the very largest fleets (501+ vehicles) saw their intervention risk fall from 72 to 42%. Fleets with 51-500 vehicles now have a 34% risk of intervention, down from 54% under the old procedures... (Photo from media.nj: trucks at Port Newark,NJ)
