Three key steps to lower Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) scores for trucking companies. The steps include focusing on prevention through thorough vehicle inspections and maintenance, ensuring the accuracy of safety data by regularly checking and correcting information in the FMCSA’s DataQ system, and implementing effective hiring practices to employ safety-conscious drivers.
