4.3 On-board Safety And Security Monitoring (User Service*)
The On-board Safety and Security Monitoring user service non-intrusively monitors the driver, vehicle, and cargo and notifies the driver, carrier, and, possibly, enforcement personnel if an unsafe situation arises during operation of the vehicle. Such an unsafe situation might involve the status of driver fatigue, vehicle systems, or cargo shift. This user service also assures freight container, trailer, and commercial vehicle integrity by monitoring on-board sensors for a breach or tamper event and monitoring assignment integrity between the vehicle, the driver or custodian, and the freight container.
User Service Requirements*:
| 4.3.0 | ITS shall include an On-Board Safety and Security Monitoring (OBSSM) function, that provides monitoring and warnings of safety and security problems. For safety related issues, the primary importance is to inform the driver, as soon as possible, of any problem that has been detected. Of secondary importance is notifying the carrier of detected safety problems. Last in importance is the notification of appropriate enforcement agencies. For security related issues, the commercial vehicle driver and authorized freight data users are informed of any problems related to freight container, trailer or commercial vehicle integrity. For commercial vehicle driver/commercial vehicle/freight container or trailer assignment mismatches, authorized freight data users are informed of a potential problem.
