Recommendations — what's driving each score
A high share of violations are occurring in Tooele County, UT · medium impact

Following / lane / reckless 76% · Speeding 24%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline

False log / RODS violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · low impact
False log / RODS 64% · Log / ELD device 36%
• Audit ELD edits and duty-status annotations weekly; a false log is a high-severity, high-visibility violation
