  1. CMV Studies A Current Project to Improve CMV Safety Daniel BlowerUMTRI

  2. Purpose: Provide analysis to support Michigan Truck Safety Commission’s strategic plan to improve truck safety in Michigan • Identify key issues in CMV crashes • Propose innovative solutions • Initiated October 2006 • Presentation to MTSC July 2007 Lidia Kostyniuk, Principle Investigator

  3. MTSC Strategic Plan • Reduce Fatigue-related crashes • Strengthen CDL program • Advance Share-the-Road • Improve truck maintenance • Identify/correct unsafe infrastructure & operations • Improve CMV safety data • Promote industry safety initiatives

  4. Top-level Targets • CMV Driver conditions/contribution • CMV Vehicle factors • Other vehicles/drivers in the crash • Operational factors • Safety data available

  5. Approach • Top level problem identification and prioritization • By size (frequency) • By index of “harm” • Detailed analysis target crash types/conditions/factors • Identify crash countermeasures (literature review, etc.)

  6. Sources of Data • Michigan Police-Reported Data (UD-10), 2001-2005 • UMTRI’s TIFA file (2001-2004) • Driver History files (MI & CDLIS) • MCMIS Census and Inspection files • Michigan FACT data (1996-2001)
