19. Driver Information Resource (DIR)

20. Background Research on Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) related crashes points toward driver-related factors “Our blueprint for the future … is to really focus on driver behavior; to restructure our [safety] programs so we focus more on drivers and move away from vehicles” -Annette Sandberg, FMCSA Administrator, Nov 2005 There is no central collection of commercial driver safety performance and regulatory compliance

21. Objective Make CMV driver safety performance and regulatory compliance data available to support FMCSA field and State enforcement programs and analysis to support rule making Make possible the identification of high-risk drivers leading to increased motor carrier safety through effective safety program targeting

22. What is Driver Information Resource (DIR)? Web-based lookup capability that provides easy access to individual CMV driver’s crash and inspection history – Contains event data on ~3.6 million CMV drivers Monthly update with new snapshot of FMCSA MCMIS data – Provides search capabilities and analytical capabilities – Available to FMCSA field and state enforcement personnel

23. Where does DIR data come from? Crash Records Driver Inspection Records Vehicle Inspection Records Driver Event Database Basic data cleanup Perform matching algorithms Consolidate records to create Driver Histories MCMIS
