In Idaho there are four state agencies that are responsible for commercial vehicle operations (CVO) administration. These four agencies are the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD), the Department of Law Enforcement (DLE), the Idaho State Tax Commission (ISTC), and the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (IPUC). An important feature of each of these agencies is the progressive attitude exhibited toward simplifying and streamlining processes while continuing to maintain safety and protection of the infrastructure. Examples of this progressive attitude can be taken from Idaho's participation in many Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) activities. These activities include participation in the Multi-Jurisdictional Automated Preclearance System (MAPS) with Oregon, Washington, and Utah, leading in the development of Aspen and SafetyNet software, being the first participant in the Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program (MCSAP) 100/200 sites program, and partnering for the Idaho Out of Service Verification Operational Test. In addition to these ITS activities, Idaho continues to demonstrate a strong commitment in improving CVO administration through the reductions of requirements, the One-Stop-Shop for permitting and credentialing, and through streamlining the application process for new carriers. |
