The FMCSA is offering the High Priority Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) Safety Grant program to significantly enhance CMV safety across the nation. This initiative aims to support, enrich, and evaluate existing CMV safety programs, directly targeting unsafe driving behaviors in high-risk crash corridors for both CMVs and non-CMVs. Key objectives include improving the safe and secure movement of hazardous materials and optimizing the transportation of goods and passengers in foreign commerce. Furthermore, the grant encourages the demonstration of innovative technologies to advance CMV safety, supports participation in PRISM, and funds projects focused on improving safety data. A vital aspect of this program is increasing public awareness and education on CMV safety, ultimately contributing to a safer transportation environment.
