| Abstract | The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), in cooperation with the John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center, has developed an analytic model to measure the effectiveness of roadside inspections and traffic enforcements in terms of the number of crashes avoided, injuries prevented, and lives saved. Traffic enforcements and roadside inspections are considered interventions; this analytic model is known as the Roadside Intervention Effectiveness Model (RIEM). This model provides FMCSA management with the information needed to address the requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993, which requires Federal agencies to measure the effectiveness of their programs as part of the budget cycle process. It also provides FMCSA and State safety program managers with a quantitative basis for optimizing the allocation of safety resources in the field. This report discusses the results of the RIEM for fiscal year (FY) 2011. |
