Data collection, safety measurement, safety evaluation, and intervention are which part of the CSA system?

• A. Major components of the CSA system.
• B. BASICs of the CSA system.
• C. Statistical tools used to monitor drivers.
• D. Categories of violations a carrier can be given.

Answer: (A)

The items listed describe how the CSA program operates as a whole. Data collection collects safety information (like roadside inspections and crash data), safety measurement turns that information into scores, safety evaluation assesses overall risk, and intervention puts actions in place to improve safety. These steps form the process that runs across the safety categories, rather than being a single category of performance. The BASICs are the categories used to organize safety performance, but they are not the steps of the system itself. So this describes major components of the CSA system.
