    It's one of the reasons FFE requires every new driver to go through their driver's academy and training, whether they hold a CDL or not. CSA2010 is very serious about safety. The old days are long gone. It's a new era.

    Exactly what is this CSA2010? Are we talking major stuff or marker lights and penny ante stuff? Not a driver, but I am curious.

    Isnt it only if you get a inspection with that not just a ticket. Not really sure myself at this point.

    Still say the hell with CSA and FTP!

    yes it must be with a inspection but warnning count just as much as a ticket does. and if you hit someone or if you are hit BY someone you will get the points without a inspection even if the other driver gets the ticket

    What kind of points you gonna get if you get hit? Failed to avoid accident you never saw coming.

    CSA 2010 is a big FAIL. Just get inspection reports, be happy to just take the ticket and smile if you don't get a inspection with it. Don't forget to be polite and say thank you and have a nice day sir.

    the points are for being involved in the crash, at fault has nothing to do with it

    Serious stuff too. I picked up 9 pts for 2 markers out. We have guys whom picked up 40 pts at one stop. For perspective I am told 85 driver points are the hiring line. Won't take long at 40 pts a stop to get canned.
