To meet Congressional requirements, FMCSA established the Crash Causal Factors Program (CCFP) to conduct in-depth research to better understand the key factors that contribute to crashes involving large trucks and buses. Phase 1 of the CCFP, the Heavy-Duty Truck Study, focuses on fatal crashes involving heavy-duty (Class 7/8) trucks. This ICR renewal covers Phase 2, the Medium-Duty Truck Study, which will focus on crashes involving medium-duty (Class 3 through 6) trucks. To plan and execute the Medium-Duty Truck Study, FMCSA must collect information from the States and local jurisdictions to understand their interest or ability to participate in the study; existing crash data collection processes, systems, and resources; and commercial motor vehicle (CMV) enforcement funding mechanisms and sources.
