What is the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) doing in the short-term
about determining the motor carrier’s role in the crash (i.e. preventability)?
Answer
The Crash Indicator Behavior Analysis and Safety Improvement Category percentile

are unpreventable on the part of the motor carrier.
