Arlington, VA – The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) will preview key findings from its soon-to-be released analysis of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) this Thursday in a special 2-hour edition of ATRI on the Air. The program is a regular feature of the Dave Nemo Show, which airs on Sirius/XM Channel 106.

ATRI’s comprehensive analysis of CSA includes multiple years of data collection from thousands of commercial drivers, motor carriers, shippers and enforcement personnel on attitudes, perceptions, understanding of, and operational impacts from CSA since its full rollout in December 2010. ATRI President Rebecca Brewster and Vice President Dan Murray will join Dave Nemo for the broadcast. The special ATRI on the Air show will air Thursday, July 19th from 9:00 – 11:00 a.m. ET. A second phase analysis that statistically analyzes the relationship between CSA and carrier safety will be released later this summer.
