UCR Craziness - Part 2

Unregistered Carriers on 9/24/2009 - 1983
Unregistered Carriers on 9/25/2009 - 1986

Continuing with the theme of the week, we registered 62 carriers yesterday ... and added another 68 carriers to our unregistered list! Now keep in mind, we haven't done any special mailings or anything - this is just the result of our daily mail/email routines with a little enforcement mixed in. It's kind of amazing, really.

Meanwhile, at a meeting yesterday, the Lieutenant in charge of Illinois' MC Safety Officers said that we might inspect 1% - but probably less - of the trucks that pass through Illinois. (See yesterday's post.) Again, vitally important, but certainly not enough.

In a separate conversation, the Director of our IL FMCSA office was remarking about the large number of New Entrant Safety Audits his people have conducted so far this year. I told him that we might have had something to do with that! He agreed. Now if that's not a direct link between UCR and Motor Carrier Safety, I don't know what is.
