FMCSA Updates SMS Website

FMCSA has updated the Safety Measurement System (SMS) Website with the November 24, 2023 results. Complete SMS results are available to enforcement users and motor carriers that are logged into the SMS Website.

Note: the Prioritization Preview Website continues to be updated monthly alongside the SMS Website. Motor carriers can visit the Preview site and log in to see what their prioritization results would be under the proposed new methodology.

Motor Carriers: Later this Month You Will Need a Login.gov Account to Access SMS

How you log in to SMS is changing. FMCSA is making access more secure by implementing multifactor authentication—a login method requiring two pieces of information to verify your identity. Later this month, you will no longer be able to use your Portal user ID and password, or your U.S. DOT Number and PIN, to access SMS. Instead, you will access SMS through the FMCSA Portal. For motor carriers, this will require a Login.gov account. For help creating a Login.gov account, visit the FMCSA website. Motor carriers can use the same Login.gov account they use to log in to FMCSA’s Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse to access the FMCSA Portal. Note that the email address in your Portal profile must match exactly with your Login.gov username (email address) to access the Portal.

Note: DOT users should refer to internal email notifications for specific instructions on creating accounts and logging in via government-issued PIV cards.
