FMCSA SMS Appendix A + MCMIS catalog · 68 codes

Search any FMCSA violation code from the SMS Methodology (Appendix A) by code, keyword, or BASIC category. Every entry shows the CSA severity weight (points), whether the violation is out-of-service (OOS) eligible, and which of the seven BASICs it counts against — including codes that appear on roadside inspections but aren't used in SMS scoring.
