MOTOR CARRIER SAFETY UNIT (MCSU)
MCSU – History
In 1985, the State of Louisiana entered into an agreement with the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) to uniformly enforce the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) and the Federal Hazardous Material Regulations (FHMR). With the formation of the Louisiana State Police (LSP) Motor Carrier Safety Unit (MCSU), the State agreed to strict requirements established by the USDOT for the inspection of commercial motor vehicles and drivers and for the reporting of all applicable data generated from these inspections.
The primary objective of Louisiana’s MCSU was to reduce the number and severity of commercial motor vehicle crashes within the State. To facilitate this objective the LSP launched a program of roadside safety inspections, compliance reviews and educational outreach initiatives.
Only officers certified by the USDOT may enforce the FMCSR and the FHMR.
MCSU – Operations
As part of the LSP Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division (CVED), the MCSU is further sub-divided into three regional units and an administrative support unit. Organizationally, the MCSU parallels the general organizational structure of the LSP. The unit is staffed full time by 46 commissioned State Troopers, Sergeants, and Lieutenants. Additionally, the MCSU’s efforts are being supplemented by commissioned Troopers from the LSP Towing & Recovery and HAZMAT Units and the Mobile Weight Enforcement Unit.
