The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) was established as a separate administration within the U.S. Department of Transportation on January 1, 2000, as a result of the Motor Carrier Safety Improvement Act of 1999. FMCSAs primary mission is to reduce crashes, injuries, and fatalities involving large trucks and buses on our Nations highways. We accomplish this through a coordinated effort of Federal, State, and industry organizations to reduce fatalities, injuries, property damage and hazardous materials incidents. We implement our safety and compliance program through a national network of fifty-two field offices, including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. FMCSA has produced A Motor Carriers Guide to Improving Highway Safety. This guide is intended to provide educational and technical assistance to the motor carrier industry and provide basic guidance on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs).
