MCMIS Catalog and Documentation
Motor Company Safety Profile
Report 1 - Carrier Operations & Safety Ratings | Description of Data Elements for this report | Top |
The information appearing in this report is the most current in the Census and Compliance Review subsystems of MCMIS. The primary sources for this information are:
See the Federal Forms MCS-150 and MCS-151 (Parts A and C) for clarification of this information. |
Report 2: SafeStat History | Description of Data Elements for this report | Top
|
The information appearing in this report is the most current in the SafeStat subsystems of MCMIS. The primary sources for this information are:
SafeStat is designed to make maximum use of readily available Federal motor carrier safety data, yet be expandable to incorporate additional data and associated algorithms. The design involves assessing a carrier in four analytical Safety Evaluation Areas (SEAs).
|
Report 3: Enforcement Data | Description of Data Elements for this report | Top
|
This report contains records regarding enforcement actions against individual motor carriers. An individual enforcement record contains data identifying the name of the motor carrier, type of enforcement activity, date of activity, total settlement amount, section numbers cited in violation and the amount paid for each cited violation. The data are printed in descending order of the settlement date, therefore, the most current data are shown first. |
Report 4: Crashes - 4 Year Summary | Descriptions of Data Elements for this report | Top |
Each crash is counted only once according to the highest severity occurrence in the crash (Fatality, Injury, Towaway). For example, a crash that resulted in a fatality will be counted as a fatal crash, even if an injury and/or a towaway occurred in the same crash. A crash that resulted in no fatalities, but resulted in injuries will be counted as an injury crash. Crashes resulting in no injuries are counted as towaway crashes. This report is intended to show trend and current information. The data represents crashes that occurred in the most recent four calendar years. |
Report 5: Individual Crashes - Min: 1 Year, Max: 2 Years | Descriptions of Data Elements for this report | Top |
The data are printed in descending order of the crash date; therefore, the most current data are shown first. The report will show all crashes for at least one year. A year is defined as a total of 12 months of data prior to the date of the report. For example, a report dated June 24, 1997, will show data from June 24, 1996 to June 23, 1997. For motor carriers involved in less than 50 crashes in the requested year, the report will also show crashes for the previous year, up to a maximum of 50 crashes. This report of individual crashes is intended to support field investigation of crashes and does not constitute evidence per se. |
Report 6: Inspections - 2 Year Summary | Descriptions of Data Elements for this report | Top |
The measure average number of out-of-service violations per inspection is used to show the overall nature and trend of problem areas. The measure % out-of-service inspections is a measure of the severity of these violations. DR (Driver), VEH (Vehicle), and HM (Hazardous Material) may not add to the ALL column because two or more of these types of violations may occur on the same inspection. For example, if a driver OOS (Out-Of-Service) and a vehicle OOS violation appear in the same inspection, that inspection will be included once in the calculation of the DR column and once in the VEH column, but also only once in the ALL column. |
Report 7: Inspection Characteristics | Description of Data Elements for this report | Top |
These data are from roadside vehicle/driver inspections (performed primarily by State personnel) or terminal vehicle inspections (performed by Federal and State personnel). The data entered into MCMIS via SAFETYNET. The violation categories used here are those used in MCSAP quarterly reports. Abbreviations (6 characters max) are used for brevity. Number of Violations represents the total number of violations of that type. The Driver, Vehicle, and Hazmat categories include only those violations that were cited with SAFETYNET violation codes. Violations that were cited with violation codes not listed in Appendix B are included under 'INVALID' or 'UNKNOWN'. The PERCENT shown is the percent of all violations (for all inspections) that were of each violation type. The violation categories on this report are mutually exclusive and, therefore, the percentages should add to 100 within plus or minus 1-2 % rounding error. |
Report 8: Individual Inspections - Min: 1 Year, Max: 2 Years | Description of Data Elements for this report | Top |
The data are printed in descending order of the inspection date; therefore, the most current data are shown first. The report will show all inspections for at least one year. A year is defined as a total of 12 months of data prior to the date of the report. For example, a report dated June 24, 1997, will show data from June 24, 1996, to June 23, 1997. For motor carriers with less than 50 inspections in the requested year, the report will show inspections for the previous year up to a maximum of 50 inspections. Each individual inspection is displayed in a five-line format. Driver Data will only appear in your report if you have been authorized to receive that information. |
Report 9: Cargo Tank Information | Description of Data Elements for this report | Top |
This report contains information relating to Cargo Tank Facilities. A single company (which has one USDOT number) may have several different facilities that perform work on cargo tanks or cargo tank vehicles. Each facility will have its own Cargo Tank Number and corresponding Cargo Tank record. This record contains basic identifying and contact information, as well as information about the type of cargo tank related work performed, the certification stamps, and the design certified engineers used by the company. If the company being profiled does not design, repair, manufacture, inspect or test cargo tanks, then they likely do not have a Cargo Tank Number/Record, and therefore this report will not print.

Report 10: Reports Not Printed | Top |
This section is appended at the end of the CSP and is only included with a CSP that has insufficient or no data available for one or more of the CSP Reports, or has reports that were not requested during ordering. Note: This section will not be included with a CSP that has sufficient information on all reports. |
Report 11: State Point Of Contact Listing | Top |
Another resource for addressing issues with the CSP data is the DataQs system. The DataQs system is an electronic means for filing concerns about Federal and State data released to the public by the FMCSA. Through this system, data concerns are automatically forwarded to the appropriate office for resolution. The system also allows filers to monitor the status of each filing. Information disseminated by the FMCSA includes data reported to FMCSA through the requirements of Federal and State programs. Release of these data is done in the interest of information exchange and to satisfy the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act. The United States government assumes no liability for the use of the data. For more information, visit the DataQs website at http://dataqs.fmcsa.dot.gov/ [Opens in New Window] . |
