摘要: Decisions between alternative safety management strategies can be made based on cost effectiveness and the magnitude of improvements in the fatality metric. A model-based decision tool also provides a documented analytical basis for decisions on the estimation of the funds necessary to achieve a desired performance level. The use of an analytical tool for evaluating alternative solutions provides the information necessary to document the basis for decisions on rejected and accepted strategies. Ultimately, use of a model to direct safety strategies would lead to improved commercial vehicle safety and reduced operating costs. Improved commercial vehicle safety will benefit all members of the community. Motor carriers will experience reduced operating costs resulting from reduced fatality rates. Government agencies will experience reduced costs from more effective enforcement. Motor carriers and government agencies will experience improved work force stability from safer working conditions. Moreover the most important benefit is that lives will be saved. This paper describes the operation and construction of such a planning tool.
