The Volpe Center has confirmed the successful running of SafeStat for the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). SafeStat is a data-driven analysis system designed to incorporate current on-road safety performance information of all motor carriers with on-site compliance review and enforcement history information to measure relative safety fitness of individual carriers.

Results of SafeStat were posted on the FMCSA web site Analysis & Information (A&I) Online (which is accessible at http://ai.volpe.dot.gov), which was developed and is maintained by the Volpe Center. The SafeStat results on A&I Online provide the FMCSA and state enforcement personnel with detailed safety information that assists in their investigations. A&I Online also provides a way to disseminate SafeStat results to stakeholders such as federal and state agencies, the motor carrier industry, shippers, insurers, and the American public.
