FMCSA last week said it has submitted a plan to Congress to begin the process of instituting reforms to its oft-derided Compliance, Safety, Accountability program. CSA went live in 2011, instituting a peer-to-peer rating system that scored carriers based on roadside inspection data and more. FMCSA used those scores to determine whether intervention was needed with carriers via an on-site compliance review. Congress in 2015 pulled the program from public view due to a myriad of issues that trucking industry stakeholders said made the scores unreliable and unfair.
