6. Supply Chain Impacts Two year data collection effort   1,000 Motor Carriers   Nearly 6,000 Commercial Drivers   Shippers   Law Enforcement Third year of driver data collection initiated March 2013

7. CSA Knowledge Test Drivers - median performance unchanged at 6.00 (out of 14) Carriers – median performance dropped one point from 11.00 to 10.00 Drivers are still hugely uninformed; growth in CSA comprehension has not occurred despite attitudes becoming more negative

8. Driver-Reported Levels of CSA Training and Education

9. What Drivers Know/Don’t Know Questions with Highest Correct Responses Questions with Highest Correct Responses  A trucking company can remove a bad driver's inspection and crash data from its SMS scores by terminating the driver – FALSE  Under CSA, only out-of-service violations are counted in the measurement system – FALSE  Clean roadside inspections can actually improve a driver or carrier's CSA scores – TRUE Questions with Fewest Correct Responses Questions with Fewest Correct Responses  Which BASICs are publicly available?  Who has access to official driver CSA scores?

20. Hours-of-Service Analysis to quantify impacts of 34-hour restart changes Released June 17 th House T&I Committee Hearing on changes June 18th

21. Impacts of 34-Hour Restart Changes Driver Survey Internet-based survey with 2,292 unique responses Internet-based survey with 2,292 unique responses 67% employee drivers; 33% owner-operator 67% employee drivers; 33% owner-operator Longer haul Longer haul 53% regular route; 89% use 70hr/ 8 day schedule 53% regular route; 89% use 70hr/ 8 day schedule Veteran truckload drivers (68% 10+ years driving) Veteran truckload drivers (68% 10+ years driving) 93% of drivers indicated use of restart 93% of drivers indicated use of restart

23. Why Drivers Use 34-Hour Restart Maximize on-duty hours – 68.5% Flexibility – 67.3% Maximize drive time – 49.1% Maximize time at home – 45% Avoid calculating a rolling week – 40.7% Others – plan for contingencies, shipper delays, weather, unexpected maintenance

25. How significantly will the 1 restart per week impact your operations?

33. Navigation System Use Quantify extent of use, perceived utility, benefits and risks from nav systems Carrier (169) and driver (677) surveys

34. Assessing the Use of Navigation Systems in the Trucking Industry Majority (54%) of drivers reported using a nav system specifically designed for truck routes   23% of drivers utilize systems designed for car use   8% used a smartphone application   15% do not use a nav system

35. Assessing the Use of Navigation Systems in the Trucking Industry Majority of carriers (51%) allow or encourage nav system use Majority of carriers (51%) allow or encourage nav system use Of the carriers who provide nav system, 21% provide passenger car system Of the carriers who provide nav system, 21% provide passenger car system Respondents generally trust the systems to be accurate Respondents generally trust the systems to be accurate 73% of drivers and 62% of carriers are at least somewhat trusting 73% of drivers and 62% of carriers are at least somewhat trusting

36. Assessing the Use of Navigation Systems in the Trucking Industry Majority of respondents (drivers and carriers) reported no crashes due to nav system errors Only 2% of drivers reported crashes attributable to nav system errors Among carriers who reported nav system- related crashes, most common errors were: 1. 1. Directing driver to a road unsuitable for trucks (41%) 2. 2. Navigating to roads with inadequate bridge/overpass clearance (34%)
