• The content in this webcast is intended for information purposes only and should not be construed as providing legal advice.
• If you ask questions based on your unique circumstances, we will attempt to address them from a more general perspective.
• This is an introductory course and is intended to highlight critical safety and compliance topics. Time constraints limit our ability to go in depth.
• According to 49 CFR §391.13, drivers must understand the vehicle inspection and securement requirements found in Parts 392 and 393 of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs).
SMS Process• Measures and compares safety performance using all
safety-based violations discovered during roadside inspections and interventions, and DOT-recordable crashes
• All violations are severity and time weighted Severity Weight - Violations 1-10, Accidents 1-3 Time Weight - 0-6 months = 3, 6-12 = 2, 12-24 = 1 Full value is determined by a formula that multiplies the weights
• Once per month, scores are totaled, normalized, and used to percentile-order carriers in BASICs versus peers in Safety Event Groups
• Carriers with percentiles that exceed the BASIC thresholds will be targeted for intervention
Cargo Related Violations • Violations that effect BASIC Measure and
Score : Damaged or loose tiedown Failing to secure vehicle equipment or load HM placard missing, damaged, or obscured HM package not secure Shipping paper errors
• Discovered during auditing: Security plan problems No shipping paper for HM shipment Accepting and transporting HM not prepared properly Failure to maintain copies of cargo tank certificates
• Tiedowns can be repaired• Must remain tight while in transit• Must be adjustable (except steel strapping)• Can’t contain knots• Edge protection may be required• Straps can go outside the rub rails• Lever-type binders are acceptable• You can choose the tiedown type
• Cargo seals expose any signs of load tampering, and locks help prevent theft
• A log of inbound and outbound cargo seal and lock numbers should be kept Date and time Number of trailer Destination of load Name of person applying Name of vehicle driver
• Record appropriate information if seal/lock is removed/broken
• Call the police immediately• Give as many details as possible
License number(s) on equipment Equipment serial number(s) Vehicle description Cargo description Time incident occurred Description of suspicious people near vehicle
• Notify the company
Make sure driver has this information with them whenever they leave the vehicle unattended!
