摘要

This report presents the results of background research leading to thedevelopment of a New Entrant Safety Fitness Assurance Process, a prequalification and monitoring program for motor carriers entering interstate service. The study was conducted by the Research and Special Programs Administrations (RSPA) John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (the Volpe Center) in Cambridge, MA, under a project plan agreement with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). The concept of a new entrant program originated from a larger research project at the Volpe Center, the goal of which was to define an improved process for motor carrier safety fitness determination and assurance for the FMCSA. A new entrant program was identified as one of the potential components of the proposed improved process. Since that proposal, the Volpe Center has performed several analyses of the safety performance and compliance of new entrants. The New Entrant Safety Fitness Assurance Process would apply to both carriers based in the United States and carriers based in Canada and Mexico that operate within the U.S. While the U.S. and Canada opened their borders to each others motor carriers in 1982, Mexican carriers have been permitted conduct cross-border operations only to border city commercial zones in the four southern U.S. border states. Under provisions of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), however, Mexican carriers will have unrestricted access to the U.S. and Canada. This report contains a description of previous new entrant safety research, a study of the applicable provisions of NAFTA, a review of the motor carrier safety regulations and available data in each of the three NAFTA countries, and a discussion of the need for a new entrant safety fitness assurance process. A succeeding report will present proposals for the prequalification and monitoring components of a new entrant program.
