  1. The Trucking Industry’s Top 10 Rebecca M. Brewster President and COO American Transportation Research Institute

  2. ATRI Trucking industry’s NFP research organization • Commercial Drivers • Congestion and Mobility • Economic Analysis • Environment • Safety • Security • Technology • Transportation Infrastructure • Trucking Industry Operations www.atri-online.org

  3. Board of Directors

  4. Research Advisory Committee

  5. 2012 Top Industry Issues CSA Hours-of-Service Economy Driver Shortage Fuel Issues/Fuel Prices EOBR/ELD Mandate Driver Retention Truck Parking Driver Health/Wellness (Tie) Congestion/Bottlenecks (Tie) Highway Infrastructure

  6. Supply Chain Impacts Two year data collection effort 1,000 Motor Carriers Nearly 6,000 Commercial Drivers Shippers Law Enforcement Third year of driver data collection initiated March 2013

  7. CSA Knowledge Test Drivers - median performance unchanged at 6.00 (out of 14) Carriers – median performance dropped one point from 11.00 to 10.00 Drivers are still hugely uninformed; growth in CSA comprehension has not occurred despite attitudes becoming more negative

  8. Driver-Reported Levels of CSA Training and Education

  9. What Drivers Know/Don’t Know • Questions with Highest Correct Responses • A trucking company can remove a bad driver's inspection and crash data from its SMS scores by terminating the driver – FALSE • Under CSA, only out-of-service violations are counted in the measurement system – FALSE • Clean roadside inspections can actually improve a driver or carrier's CSA scores – TRUE • Questions with Fewest Correct Responses • Which BASICs are publicly available? • Who has access to official driver CSA scores?

  10. CSA Scores and Crash Risk • Highlights from Previous Research • Comparative Review of Statistical Tools • ATRI’s Findings • Analyzed Both Percentile Scores & “Alerts” • Interest from U.S. DOT IG

  11. BASIC Scores and Crash Risk

  12. Scores Below vs. Above Threshold

  13. Controlled Substances/Alcohol • Percentile Scores and Crash Rates

  14. Controlled Substances/Alcohol • No Score vs. Below Threshold vs. “Alert”

  15. Driver Fitness • Percentile Scores and Crash Rates

  16. Driver Fitness • No Score vs. Below Threshold vs. “Alert”

  17. Crash Risk As Number of Scores or “Alerts” Increases

  18. Statistically Defensible Safety Conclusions

  19. Statistically Defensible Safety Conclusions

  20. Hours-of-Service • Analysis to quantify impacts of 34-hour restart changes • Released June 17th • House T&I Committee Hearing on changes June 18th

  21. Impacts of 34-Hour Restart Changes Driver Survey • Internet-based survey with 2,292 unique responses • 67% employee drivers; 33% owner-operator • Longer haul • 53% regular route; 89% use 70hr/ 8 day schedule • Veteran truckload drivers (68% 10+ years driving) • 93% of drivers indicated use of restart

  22. Impacts of the 34-Hour RestartMotor Carrier Survey • Internet-based survey with 560 unique responses • Truckload • Irregular route • 70 hour/ 8 day schedule • Majority small (<100 PU) carriers

  23. Why Drivers Use 34-Hour Restart • Maximize on-duty hours – 68.5% • Flexibility – 67.3% • Maximize drive time – 49.1% • Maximize time at home – 45% • Avoid calculating a rolling week – 40.7% • Others – plan for contingencies, shipper delays, weather, unexpected maintenance

  24. How significantly will the 1am to 5am rule impact your operations?

  25. How significantly will the 1 restart per week impact your operations?

  26. Motor Carrier Survey Impacts from Changes

  27. Logbook Analysis • Logbook data from 40,000+ drivers • Analysis to evaluate FMCSA Regulatory Impact Analysis (RIA) • Percent of drivers using restart • Percent of restarts out of compliance with 1-5 a.m. and 1 per week • Variations in driver weekly averages

  28. Striking Differences FMCSA • Data analysis on 1,035 drivers • Drivers from carriers undergoing Compliance Reviews • 15% of drivers averaged 70+ hours per week ATRI • Data analysis on 14,000+ drivers • Drivers from carriers representing normal operations • 0% of drivers averaged 70+ hours per week

  29. 34-Hour Restart

  30. 34-Hour Restart *Not captured by FMCSA in RIA.

  31. 34-Hour Restart

  32. Hours-of-Service • Second phase data collection underway to quantify actual impacts • Motor carrier and driver surveys launched September • Logbook analysis underway

  33. Navigation System Use Quantify extent of use, perceived utility, benefits and risks from nav systems Carrier (169) and driver (677) surveys

  34. Assessing the Use of Navigation Systems in the Trucking Industry Majority (54%) of drivers reported using a nav system specifically designed for truck routes 23% of drivers utilize systems designed for car use 8% used a smartphone application 15% do not use a nav system

  35. Assessing the Use of Navigation Systems in the Trucking Industry • Majority of carriers (51%) allow or encourage nav system use • Of the carriers who provide nav system, 21% provide passenger car system • Respondents generally trust the systems to be accurate • 73% of drivers and 62% of carriers are at least somewhat trusting

  36. Assessing the Use of Navigation Systems in the Trucking Industry • Majority of respondents (drivers and carriers) reported no crashes due to nav system errors • Only 2% of drivers reported crashes attributable to nav system errors • Among carriers who reported nav system-related crashes, most common errors were: • Directing driver to a road unsuitable for trucks (41%) • Navigating to roads with inadequate bridge/overpass clearance (34%)

  37. What is the NAFMP? • Multi-year collaborative research to develop, test and evaluate components of a fatigue management program (FMP) for commercial vehicle operators • 4 research phases, 10 years

  38. NAFMP Website • Implementation Manual – includes recommended guidelines for all NAFMP components • Return-on-Investment calculator • Online Training www.NAFMP.org

  39. WWW.NFAMP.ORG

  40. C

  41. Freight Bottleneck Analysis • Ongoing monitoring of 250 truck freight-significant locations • Avoiding/scheduling around truck freight congestion chokepoints www.atri-online.org

  42. Freight Performance Measures2013 Top Ten Bottlenecks

  43. Operational Costs of Trucking • Annual report first issued in 2008 • Real-world motor carrier operational data • 2013 Update released 9/4/13

  44. Operational Costs of Trucking: 2013 Update Average Carrier Costs per Mile

  45. Operational Costs of Trucking: 2013 Update Average Carrier Costs per Hour

  46. Operational Costs of Trucking: 2013 Update Average Total Costs by Sector

  47. Supporting the Industry’s Research Agenda • Charitable contributions to ATRI • Participate in ATRI surveys and data collection – Top Industry Issues • Recommend research ideas • Join the Research Advisory Committee www.atri-online.org
