17. Key Findings:
• The Unfair Bias against flatbed carriers is gone
• The #1 Cargo Violation is now #41 (CSA Point Contributor) in Maintenance
• HAZMAT BASIC contains sparse data on the 118 new violations added
• Wholesale re-weighting (severity) of almost all Cargo violations, severity
DECREASED across the board with a single exception (a passenger violation
stayed the same)
• New HAZMAT BASIC is solely focused on placards and compliance (not safety
issues)
• Unintended Consequences:
• Data Sufficiency gives odd results – Alert Status for large carriers on very
few violations
• Unfair Bias against large carriers who do not specialize in HAZMAT (LTL and
others)
