All over the nation, chameleon carriers are hiding in plain sight.
The bill would require FMCSA to conduct a study on chameleon carriers and test an advanced automation tool to help enforcement identify the bad actors.
The report would include information about the prevalence of chameleon carriers and the estimated number of fatalities these companies have caused.
The prevalence of chameleon carriers received national attention when the CBS News Show, “60 Minutes,” reported on the problem earlier this year.
“60 Minutes” cited data from Fusable that chameleon carriers are four times more likely to be involved in severe crashes.
