[GUIDE] The BASICs of DOT Recordkeeping

The FMCSA uses seven Behavior Analysis and Safety Improvement Categories (BASICs) to determine a motor carrier’s safety performance in comparison with other carriers.

And this performance MATTERS.

In fact, it contributes to a carrier’s CSA score. This, in turn, can have a BIG influence on insurance premiums and business partnerships—for better or for worse.

Whether you’re familiar with the seven BASICs or this is the first time you’re hearing about them, it’s important to review the safety protocols and recordkeeping requirements for each—that is if you want to avoid violations, hefty fines, and a higher percentile ranking.

Feeling overwhelmed? Don’t worry! Our newest guide has got you covered. In it, you’ll learn regulation codes, safety violations, and recordkeeping requirements for each BASIC so that you can protect your all-important CSA score.

Here’s what we cover:
