Comments on Proposed Enhancements to the Motor Carrier Safety Measurement System (SMS) Public Web Site

Dear ASECTT member:

 

Attached is a copy of our Comments regarding “Proposed Enhancements to the Motor Carrier Safety Measurement System (SMS) Public Web Site,” Docket No. FMCSA-2013-0392.  We included some new peer group analyses which further reinforces our conclusions that the agency’s grade on the curve methodology is fatally flawed and cannot withstand an objective evaluation of its merits.  Hopefully we have reminded the agency that its proposed PR campaign ignores material issues which must be addressed.
