The Agency has successfully overseen the motor carrier industry, reducing crashes year after year by managing the industry on a risk assessment basis, auditing only those carriers which it determines in need of attention.
ASECTT is a group of shippers, carriers, brokers, and other interested parties that has been formed to alert the shipping community of the impact of CSA on capacity, competition and liability. Please join ASECTT in our mission. Stay tuned for the latest news in "Media Coverage" below.

Articles by Mark J. Andrews and William B. Bierman
Please read the excellent article by Mark J. Andrews which appeared in the ATLP Journal this month. "CSA and Motor Carriers: the 'Intervention' Really Needed is a Stiff Dose of Administrative Due Process," 78 J. Transp. L. Logist. & Pol'y 129[2] (2011). It is a well researched and thorough legal explanation of the legal basis for our Administrative Procedure Act objections to CSA 2010.
I am also including a recent article by William B. Bierman, Esq. which appeared in the Spring 2011 In Transit Magazine.
