abstract="The majority of prior research and analysis has indicated driver-related factors as the main cause of most commercial vehicle-related crashes. The main goal of the current project is to provide a greater concentration on the commercial driver in order to have the most significant impact on the number of crashes. To accomplish this crash reduction goal, the current study combines and expands on two previous research effortsâ??the development of the Inspection Selection System (InspSS), and a project analyzing the use of driver traffic conviction data to better identify high-risk motor carriers.   <p>To accomplish the greater focus on the commercial driver, the present project has two specific objectives. The first objective is to further analyze the data and weightings associated with the carrier driver conviction measure created through the conviction data study. This analysis is to help confirm previous findings. The second objective is to integrate the carrier driver conviction measure into the current Inspection Selection System, and conduct a pilot test in a select number of states. As part of this implementation, an analysis was conducted regarding the current level of technology available in the various states, and what technology may be of the greatest use to improve the ability to obtain InspSS information. In addition, a proof of concept field test was also conducted.</p>",
