FMSCA Study
10 CSA Vehicle Maintenance Severity Chart Violation severity weights reflect the relative importance of each violation within each BASIC. These weights cannot be compared or added meaningfully across the BASICs.
11 In cases where a violation results in an Out-of-Service Order as defined in 49 CFR 390.5, an additional weight of 2 is added to arrive at a total severity weight for the violation.
FMCSA sponsored study confirms web-based training is a viable solution for training, and can help you increase efficiencies and reduce your operating costs in this tough economy.
A whitepaper from Jim Dodd, CFO of Southern Refrigerated Transport confirms using Infinit-I Workforce Solutions reduces expenses and increases ROI.
