Having said this, among them, are the following:
- Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA)
- Department of Transportation (DOT)

- Occupational Safety and Fitness Electronic Records (OSHA)
Second, although it cannot be compared to a trucker’s life, the security of cargo matters as well.
Having said this, there is a Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) which is an annual safety program.
According to their program, you need to master the art of cargo securement.
To continue with, these are the main reasons why you need to maintain a clean driving record. By driving properly and according to the law, you will not only guarantee your safety but the cargo safety as well.
In addition to this, completing a safe transportation is very important for your trucking company and your work position as well.
