Carrier Safety Measurement System (CSMS, or SMS) - Raw Data

Metadata Updated: June 26, 2024

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's (FMCSA) Safety Management System (SMS) is an automated data system used by FMCSA to monitor motor carrier on-road safety performance. FMCSA analyzes safety performance by grouping carrier data in the SMS into seven Behavioral Analysis and Safety Improvement Categories (BASICs) which are, in turn, used to identify potential safety problems with individual carriers and determine when an enforcement intervention might be appropriate.
