The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Office of Research and Technology held a series of five stakeholder forums throughout February and March 2003. These forums were structured to gather stakeholder input regarding the agencys research agenda, and educate stakeholders about the FMCSA Research and Technology program and key ongoing projects. The forums were attended by a wide range of stakeholders, including representatives from: Motor carriers; Motor coach companies; Industry associations; Safety advocacy groups; State enforcement agencies; Commercial vehicle manufacturers; Academia; and Vendors of systems and services focused on improving commercial vehicle safety. The forums generated over 150 recommendations regarding FMCSAs research program.

The majority of recommendations focused on driver-related factors. Recommendations also were made regarding vehicle, carrier/shipper, and roadside/environmental issues.
