Successfully contesting the questionable citations arising from roadside inspections or traffic stops will now allow us to clean up your CSA scores. DataQ has been modified to adjust the data according to court outcome.
If we are successful in defeating the court citation, we then follow up in DataQ with certified court documents showing the better outcome or dismissal in court. We're very proud to offer help to you and your drivers in all Arizona courts and then wiping out the CSA violations thru the DataQ process (if we win, of course).
Under 49 CFR 350.201(s), States must “establish a program to ensure that accurate, complete, and timely motor carrier safety data are collected and reported, and ensure the State’s participation in a national motor carrier safety data correction system prescribed by FMCSA.”
Well, we now have the process; and let's use it to correct errors and apply some justice to driving records.
Here's how the Agency expects the changes to appear after resolution of citations: if successful and we get the citation or criminal charge dismissed or the client is found not guilty or not responsible, the CSA violation will be removed from PSP and SMS scoring; if there's a plea to a lesser charge, the weight will be reduced to 1.
We were recently successful in winning the dismissal of a double log criminal charge. We argued to the court that the "search and seizure" of the alleged double logs was unconstitutional.
Call if we can help you or your driver.
