FMCSA is the primary enforcement and regulatory agency responsible for truck and bus safety, the companies that own them, and the drivers who operate them. The agency proposes rules, implements enforcement programs, and develops systems to reduce crashes involving large trucks and buses. In recent years, the FMCSAs work has contributed to a dramatic reduction in severe and fatal Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) related crashes, with a combined 1,497 fewer lives lost between 2007, 2008, and 2009, when fatalities in crashes with large trucks and buses numbered 5,116; 4,545; and 3,619, respectively.
