Last week, BigRoad hosted a webinar on how to keep perfect logs and ensure they’re inspection-ready. Joining the webinar was Debbie Fapo, a member of the BigRoad Support Team. Debbie demonstrated how to best utilize the features of the BigRoad Mobile App in order to produce clean logs. If you missed the webinar, check out the recording.
The main goal of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is to prevent crashes, injuries, and fatalities related to commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) operating in the United States. In December 2010, the FMCSA launched the Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) program. This data-driven safety and compliance enforcement program was designed to improve safety while preventing accidents involving CMVs.

The rule will take effect Dec. 10, 2017, giving carriers and drivers a two-year window to comply with the rule’s requirements.
