2 Our Mission The primary mission of the NC Highway Patrol, Motor Carrier Enforcement Section is to promote highway safety and reduce collisions. It is our goal that through the education of applicable state and federal laws, you can help us to accomplish this mission.
3 Introduction We are the only Agency with the training and authority to enforce FMCSA Regulations Hazardous Materials Regulations Motor Coach Regulations Size & Weight Laws
4 Motor Carrier Enforcement Troopers Weight Enforcement Enforce weight laws in North Carolina Can conduct CMV inspections Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program (MCSAP) Conduct CMV inspections Levels 1, 2, and 3.

8 Hazardous Material
9 CSA Compliance Safety and Accountability Increase the opportunity to have more contact with drivers and carriers Enhanced data collection to improve performance measurements that identify high key risk behaviors in drivers and carriers Apply interventions to correct behaviors
10 Major Elements of CSA Measurement Intervention Safety, Evaluation, and Information Technology
11 Measurement Groups the safety performance data of the drivers and carriers into seven groups called BASICs 1. Unsafe Driving 2. Fatigued Driving 3. Driver Fitness 4. Controlled Substances/Alcohol 5. Vehicle Maintenance 6. Improper Loading/Cargo 7. Crash Indicator
12 Intervention Once the unfit level is reached in one or more of the BASICs an intervention is automatically triggered. The intervention can be one or more of the five actions listed. 1. Warning Letter 2. Targeted Roadside Inspections 3. Off-Site Investigation 4. On-Site Investigation- Focused Cooperative Safety Plan Notice of Violation Increasing Severity On-Site Investigation 5. Comprehensive Notice of Claim/Settlement Agreement
13 Safety Evaluation Safety fitness determination would be based on performance data processed through the measurement system Depending on the motor carrier s BASIC scores, the safety fitness determination could be continue to operate, marginal (with ongoing intervention), or proposed unfit Each motor carrier or driver for which there is sufficient data would receive a safety fitness determination that would be updated every 30 days
14 Times Have Changed Remember when you could pump gas BEFORE paying? Not anymore. Remember before you had a cell phone? The world has changed. Stay in your truck seat belted until you receive directions from the Trooper Don t reach for paperwork until directed
15 What Should I Do When I Get Stopped Turn on flashers or turn signal and slow down Look for a safe place to stop Always stop to the right. Never use middle lanes or inside shoulder against the median or exit ramp splits Remember YOU are the PROFESSIONAL Driver!
16 Common Driver Violations Logbook Seat Belt Speeding Following Too Close Cell Phone Use Improper Class of License Expired Medical Card Alcohol Use Fatigued Driving
17 Electronic Logbooks ABORD ABORD may be used until 12/16/2019. ABORD does NOT show graph, just hours. ELD S Driver must carry 8 days of paper logs in case ELD or ABORD malfunction. Driver must know which system he is using and how to operate that system.
18 Seat Belt Per state and federal law, each occupant of a motor vehicle shall have a seatbelt properly fastened about his or her body at all times when the vehicle is in forward motion on a street or highway in this State. There is no medical exception for seat belt use in a CMV. Seat belt use reduces your chance of death or serious injury by 50% if involved in a collision. Fine for failure to wear a seat belt is $179.00

20 Speeding No person shall drive a vehicle on a highway or in a public vehicular area at a speed greater than is reasonable and prudent under the existing conditions. At 55 mph it can take a large truck 196 feet to stop in normal conditions. Fines exceed $200 and vary upon the speed. Some violations have mandatory court appearances. 6 points on your license
21 Following Too Close The driver of a motor vehicle shall not follow another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent. Increased distance allows enough room to make a good, well planned decision. Could you avoid a collision? 1 second of distance for every 10 miles per hour Double your distance in adverse conditions. Fine is $ and 8 points on your license.
22
23
24 State and federal law make it unlawful for any person to operate a commercial motor while using a mobile telephone or other electronic device. This restricts a driver from reaching for, holding, or pressing multiple buttons to conduct communication. You can only press a single button to operate a hands free device.
