| 摘要： | In 1994, the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Office of Motor Carriers began a national peer exchange to help identify the most successful procedures and techniques related to selected specific elements of the Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program (MCSAP). MCSAP is a federal grant program whose purpose is to reduce the numbers and severity of crashes and hazardous-material incidents involving commercial motor vehicles. State transportation and law enforcement agencies use the grants to enhance their existing motor carrier safety programs through roadside inspections of drivers and vehicles, traffic enforcement, public education and awareness efforts, collection of data, and compliance reviews. Peer exchange has been used as an effective forum for exchanging information and encouraging creativity through site visits, interviews, and other mechanisms. The third in an ongoing series of national peer exchanges was successfully completed recently. The subject of the peer exchange was education and technical assistance to motor carriers and commercial vehicle drivers. The exchange set out to identify best practices for providing effective educational and technical assistance to commercial drivers and motor carriers and to disseminate information on the best practices to states and private industry. To date, 22 different states have participated in the three national exchanges; site visits in 26 states have been conducted; and 44 federal, state, and industry personnel have participated as delegates or alternates. |
