If A Guy Wanted To Know His/Her CSA?

This is the FMCSA's website to get a copy of your PSP report. $10.

https://www.psp.fmcsa.dot.gov/psp/default.aspx

They adjust scores monthly so 30 to 60 days is what your looking at for something to be reported there. Remember, anything that goes there has to be reported on a roadside inspection form. Tickets from a local cop with no inspection, anything in your personal vehicle will not appear on your PSP.

 

That's probably the LEO eyes-only database. The carrier score database is updated every thirty days (FMCSA rep on Dave Nemo show) - and I'd imagine the PSP database has the same currency.

 

Not if you didn't receive a DOT inspection - did you sign an inspection form that has to be turned into your company? If not, it won't be on CSA. It will appear on your MVR, and you will have to report it to your company.

 

Do " good things " show up to ? -
for instance you had an inspection and passed with flying colors .
thanx in advance.

 

NOPE!!

 

The good ones are actually supposed to show up. Even more importantly, the good ones can offset negative points. the problem is there are so few good ones that get submitted due to the backlog of submissions. I was told by a FMCSA rep that a driver can go by a smaller inspection station, ask for an inspection and ask the inspector to make sure it gets submitted. She said the smaller ones that aren't crazy busy will more than likely submit it whereas the busy ones won't.

IMO, for owner/ops, the points should go to them but the chicken #### ones should not go to company drivers. Most times, it doesn't seem like they have a choice in the corrections before hitting the road. I know, they are responsible for their pre-trip but a lot of small companies make them hit the road regardless. We've been doing a lot of hiring and I've pulled so many driver CSA reports, I feel bad for some of these guys.
