29-250 C.M.R. ch. 162, § 25 - PRISM
1. The State of Maine is a participant in the
PRISM program. PRISM links the FMCSA's motor carrier safety information with
the State's motor vehicle registration process to achieve two purposes:
A. To determine the carrier's safety fitness
prior to issuing a registration plate, and
B. To cause the unsafe carrier to improve its
safety performance through an improvement process, and, where necessary, the
application of registration sanctions.
2. A carrier's record of poor safety
performance may result in the denial or suspension of its privilege to
register. The authorization for such action is under the Statutory Authority of
29-A M.R.S.A. §2458.
3. The rules governing the PRISM program are
in the Secretary of State's Rule Chapter 169.
