    As an experienced motorcyclist (over 300,000 ticket and accident free 2 wheel miles through more than 30 states), I take my personal safety on the road very seriously. As a new CDL holder, I expect to approach my professional miles with the same attitude towards safety and would like to monitor my own record, so I can address any issues/contest any claims/adjust habits as appropriate and needed.

    That said, how would I get a monthly or quarterly report on my professional miles of my record?

    I imagine you can go to you local DMV and get a report (for a fee). In ON we have a 3 yr non commercial record and a 5 yr commercial record.

    Also, you can go to the CSA website and (again, for a fee) get a peek at your CSA record. You can start here:

    I would think that someone would come up with a way to get a regular updated report like you would get a credit report....

    Only a company has a CSA score, not an individual.

    yep, we privileged drivers have no access to our score.

    however, you can pull up your points by looking at your inspections through your company snapshot. just make sure you do the math accordingly, as company and driver don't maintain the points the same for the same timeframe.

    company loses after 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months. while driver is 12, 24, and 36 months.

    I think you missed what I said. Drivers do not have a CSA score. Only a company does. There is no such thing as an individual CSA score.

    Don't have time to look up all of the details, but anything the government has on you can be seen for free by making a FOIA request. Takes a little longer to get as opposed to paying the fee, but it is free.

    There really isn't any need to monitor it, though. If you don't have any violations noted on any inspections (no warnings, no citations), and you don't get into any crashes, you won't have any points. If you DO receive a warning or citation with an inspection, you can look up the point value of that violation, multiply it by the time multiplier, and you'll know your score.
