Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program (MCSAP)

The Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program (MCSAP) is a federal initiative in the United States aimed at improving the safety of commercial trucking. It provides funding to state governments to help enforce regulations that ensure trucks and their drivers comply with safety standards. MCSAP focuses on reducing crashes, injuries, and fatalities involving large trucks by promoting proper maintenance, driver training, and inspections. By supporting state efforts in these areas, MCSAP helps create safer roads for everyone, including other drivers and pedestrians.
