July 12, 2013 | Following up from our post earlier this week highlighting the new HOS Rule, another important component of your driving safety plan is your CSA Score.

CSA scores are updated on a monthly basis. They measure the carrier’s safety accountability and rely on various components for measurement. The FMCSA relies on the following to calculate scores:

- Unsafe driving

- Fatigued driving/hours of service

- Driver fitness

- Controlled substances/alcohol
