Commercial Vehicle-Safety Technical Assistance Center (CV-STAC)
UMassSafe has recently launched the Commercial Vehicle-Safety Technical Assistance Center (CV-STAC) for the FMCSA Eastern Service Center (ESC). The purpose of CV-STAC is to guide law enforcement, state driver’s licensing agencies, and universities in the development and expansion of partnerships and programs promoting commercial motor vehicle (CMV) safety and commercial driver’s license (CDL) compliance. Building off the momentum from UMassSafe’s 2016 Commercial Vehicle Safety Research Summit, CV-STAC highlights projects implemented by states and universities, culling best practice information on safety countermeasures and current safety research findings, hosting webinar sessions on best practices, as well as publishing blog posts on relevant topics.
