Fatalities per 100 Million Vehicle Miles Traveled has decreased since the implementation of the Roadside Inspection Program in 1984, the CR/Safety Rating Program in 1986, and the PRISM SafeStat Program in 1999 until 2007. 

The new CSA 2010 Program is the next generation FMCSA safety program aimed to maximize federal and state enforcement agencies efforts to reduce the commercial vehicle related fatality rate. The FMCSA has taken a new approach to how the agency evaluates the safety of motor carriers and drivers.
