Ferro's focus on truck driver's safety during her time as administrator of the United States Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is perhaps her most notable work. Ferro emphasized using real-time data on driver behavior to minimize trucker-related accidents, she also fought against excessive disciplining of truck drivers. As Ferro once said during a 2011 interview with the Journal of Commerce, “It’s all about the driver”.[4]
