| Summary of Issue | Motor carriers receive HM/DG violations at roadside inspections that may not be fully within their control, but are the responsibility of some other party, such as the shipper. |
| Justification or Need | Carrier profiles are negatively affected, perhaps needlessly. |
| Request for Action | Begins to devise a way to separate out HM/DG shipper violations, so that violations beyond the control of the carrier can be removed froma carrier's profile. NOTE: AdHoc Committee appointed by Chairman Bugg following Pittsburgh, PA Workshop. |
