Recommendations — what's driving each score
A high share of violations are occurring in Oceana County, MI · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Oceana County, MI to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Speeding violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · low impact
Speeding 42% · Seat belt 31% · Following / lane / reckless 27%
• Coach the drivers with speeding violations directly — Unsafe Driving points are weighted heavily
• Set and enforce a governed road speed; review telematics/dashcam speed events weekly
Projected: could improve up to 5 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Load securement violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · low impact
Load securement 40% (7 OOS) · Tires 33% (7 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 14% (1 OOS)
• Carry extra straps/chains and know the working-load-limit math; re-check in the first 50 miles
• Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight
Projected: could improve up to 12 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
