The SAFER Transport Act is designed to enhance the security and integrity of freight transportation in the United States, specifically targeting issues related to freight fraud and theft. By establishing a more reliable system for transporting goods, the act aims to protect businesses and consumers from financial losses associated with these crimes. Central to the act is the creation of a Freight Fraud and Theft Advisory Committee, which will include input from various stakeholders such as motor carriers, railroads, ports, and law enforcement.
