Abstract
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s (FMCSA) 2014 Pocket Guide to Large Truck and Bus Statistics highlights the Agency’s role in collecting and analyzing crash data and statistics to support its mission to prevent commercial motor vehicle-related fatalities and injuries. It can serve as a valuable, compact resource for industry representatives, Federal agencies, and other individuals interested in motor carrier safety regulations and performance data. The primary mission of FMCSA is to reduce crashes, injuries, and fatalities involving large trucks and buses. In carrying out its safety mandate, FMCSA develops and enforces data-driven regulations that balance motor carrier safety with efficiency. (Author/publisher)
