Video Summary

This module covers FMCSA accident protocols and procedures. A reportable crash involves a commercial motor vehicle in interstate or intrastate commerce and results in a tow-away, a fatality, or an injury requiring immediate medical treatment away from the scene. Carriers must keep a crash register for three years, recording the date and location, driver, injuries or fatalities, and any qualifying hazardous-material release. The course also addresses accident impacts, prevention through training, maintenance, and safety culture, and compliance with reporting, investigation, and record-keeping regulations.
