In an attempt to eliminate crash related deaths caused by unsafe and aggressive driving practices by both passenger and commercial vehicle drivers, each year in October, law enforcement across North America targets these drivers during CVSA's “Operation Safe Driver” campaign.

This campaign began in 2007 as a collaborative effort of the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, and state, provincial, and local law enforcement personnel to combat the number of deaths resulting from crashes involving large trucks, buses, and passenger vehicles.

During Operation Safe Driver — held across the United States, Canada, and Mexico — CVSA aims to increase:
* Commercial vehicle and non-commercial vehicle traffic enforcement;
* Safety belt enforcement;
* Driver roadside inspections;
* Driver regulatory compliance;
* Implementation of commercial driver educational and awareness programs to
the motor carrier population; and
* Awareness to the motoring public about safe operations around commercial
motor vehicles.
