Recommendations — what's driving each score
English language violations are the leading contributor to Driver Fitness · high impact
English language 93% · Driver qualification / CDL / medical 7% (3 OOS)
• Assess English proficiency at hire and provide support/training where needed

Brakes violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · high impact
Brakes 35% (15 OOS) · Tires 30% (2 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 15% (21 OOS)
• Check brake adjustment and listen for air leaks every pre-trip; put brakes on the PM schedule
• Fix air-loss and warning-light faults before dispatch — don’t “drive it in”
Projected: could improve up to 11 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
