ARLINGTON, VA-- The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) released a report yesterday detailing the extent to which CSA has exerted an influence on the daily lives of commercial drivers.
ATRI's survey collected from 4,555 U.S. truck drivers reveal a myriad of concerns related to CSA, ATRI discovered that drivers may not have a solid understanding of what CSA is and does. Among the findings, over 77 percent of drivers incorrectly believe that a trucking company inherits past violations from new hires. Nearly two-thirds of drivers are somewhat or extremely concerned that they will lose their jobs as a result of CSA.
"ATRI's study clearly points out that motor carriers, state trucking associations and FMCSA collectively need to do more to educate drivers about CSA and what it does and doesn't mean for their jobs," commented Ed Crowell, Georgia Motor Trucking Association President and CEO.
ATRI currently has a similar motor carrier survey underway which can be accessed online at ATRI's website.
