Latest inspection 2026-10-07. “Projected” recomputes the SMS formula on today’s record — an estimate, not an official FMCSA figure. “Est. %ile” is a VioCodes estimate of how the carrier ranks against its peers (FMCSA marks the percentile itself “Not Public”), shown as a likely range.
Recommendations — what's driving each score

• Review the inspections from Box Elder County, UT to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Seat belt violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · low impact
Seat belt 55% · Following / lane / reckless 29% · Speeding 16%
• Zero-tolerance belt policy; verify with in-cab camera or spot checks

False log / RODS violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · low impact
False log / RODS 100%

Brakes 33% (2 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 24% · Other 16% (1 OOS)
• Check brake adjustment and listen for air leaks every pre-trip; put brakes on the PM schedule
