    PSP violations stay on for 3 years. Crashes stay on for 5 years.

    As ZVar said there are no PSP points. Your violations will translate into points on a companies CSA score if they hire you though.

    You can get a copy of your PSP report at Pre-Employment Screening Program.

    I think you are thinking about the multipliers. They do go away after 2 years. This can be confusing. This is why getting points can be tough. 1st year its points x 3, 2nd year its points x 2, last year it's just the points.

    No it won't. Some companies will translate the PSP report into some sort of internal company score, but that has nothing to do with CSA or PSP. As for the violations following to a new company, they do not. The carrier gets the points when the violation happens. They cannot remove the points by firing the driver, nor does a new company have to worry about any points following the driver.

    No such thing as multipliers on a PSP report.

    Absolutely correct! I have been attempting to tell drivers for a while now to STOP worrying about anything to do with CSA-2010. Just run legally. The FMCSA rolled out CSA and did so in such a way they scared the entire industry. There are still safety types that spread a lot of this garbage. I basically stay out of CSA topics because of this.

    Are there any other driver related things that have to do with your driving record or work or driving history available to the driver at no or minimal cost? Trying to get back to driving and just want to make sure all the I's are dotted and the t's crossed before I start applying. Thanks in advance for any helpful info .
