Great blog on this tough topic. I wonder has FMCSA decided the accident basic....with or without preventability of accident?
Thanks
Bill S.
To the best of my knowledge, the FMCSA currently makes no distinction between a preventable and non-preventable accident. This is, however, an area the trucking companies and trucking associations have concern about and they have made their opinions known to the FMCSA. We'll have to wait and see if the rules are changed.
I had a drunk driver hit my truck a few years ago. I was in a legal parking space in a rest area and was not even in the truck. Now if I read this right I would still have my safety rating dinged under this new rule. How is that going to make the highways any safer?
I want to know how this is going to be fare for the little guy. where as JB Hunt has 10,000 trucks on the road...they can have 1,000 of them put out of service or involved in accidents and still only have a 10% saftey failure. We only have 2 trucks....If we have one of them get shut down or in an accident, we wind-up with a 50% saftey failure. How is this fare??????
