Advanced information and communications technologies is known as intelligent transportation systems/commercial vehicle operations (ITS/CVO). Three general areas of state motor carrier regulation are discussed: safety assurance; administration of the credential process (e.g., vehicle registration); and commercial vehicle clearance at ports of entry and weigh stations. Many of the specific technologies (e.g., weigh-in-motion, automated vehicle identification, and automated vehicle classification) have or are being tested through a series of operational tests funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation. States and the motor carrier industry are looking at institutional barriers that may prevent or deter deployment of ITS/CVO technologies nationwide. This guide examines the potential roadblocks to implementing these technologies and the role Governors can play in overcoming these barriers to implementation.
