This project assesses the safety performance of commercial motor vehicles in the Sate of Illinois. The motivation for this study was to assess if federal and state safety regulations, which until recently were different, led to differing outcomes in safety performance. The basic premise employed in this study is that differences in impacts between the regulations should be measurable by means of a set of outcome measures. The study used numerous state and national data on motor carrier safety and vehicle crashes. Between 1993 and 1997, bot the CMV Fatality Rate and the CMV Fatal Crash Involvement Rate in Illinois dropped, Miioring national safety trends. The Illinois CMV Crash Involvement Rate (for all crashes) is somewhere between the light and heavy truck crash rates at the national level. Inspection rates (per million miles driven) are higher for interstate CMVs compared to intrastate CMVs.
