Reporting Unsafe Truck Drivers, Commercial Vehicles, or Government Vehicles

If you encounter a truck driver, commercial vehicle, or government vehicle being driven in an unsafe manner, it is crucial to report it for the safety of everyone on the road. Below are the different reporting channels based on the type of vehicle involved:

Reporting a Government Vehicle

If you observe reckless or unsafe driving by a government vehicle, you can report it directly through the following federal resource:

• Federal Government Reporting Links:
  Report Government Vehicle Misuse or Reckless Driving
  This link will direct you to the relevant government platform for reporting unsafe driving by federal vehicles.

Reporting a Commercial Truck Driver

If you witness a commercial truck driver operating their vehicle recklessly or unsafely, it’s important to report the behavior promptly:

• Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA):
  Report Unsafe Truck Driver or Unsafe Driving
  This platform is managed by the FMCSA, which handles the safety of commercial truck drivers. You can file a report about unsafe or reckless driving.

Reporting a Commercial Vehicle

For other types of commercial vehicles (such as delivery trucks or service vehicles), you can report unsafe driving in the following ways:

• Direct Report to the Company:
  If the vehicle displays the company name or logo, you can try reaching out directly to the company. Many companies take reports of unsafe driving seriously and will investigate accordingly.
• State Programs:
  Some states offer programs specifically for reporting commercial vehicles. If you’re unsure how to proceed, we’ve compiled a list of resources available in each state.
