Latest inspection 2026-08-19. “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
Tires violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · high impact
Tires 45% (3 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 32% (3 OOS) · Brakes 17% (2 OOS)
• Gauge and thump every tire on the walk-around, including inner duals
• Replace before tread hits the limit; correct low pressure immediately
Projected: could improve up to 46 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Vehicle out-of-service rate exceeds the national average · high impact
• Review recent inspections with out-of-service violations and fix the root causes with equipment and drivers
• Run a preventative-maintenance program; periodically inspect tires, brakes and lights
Speeding violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · low impact
Speeding 66% · Seat belt 18% · Following / lane / reckless 16%
• 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 22 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Log / ELD device violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · low impact
Log / ELD device 67% · False log / RODS 33%
• Make sure the ELD is registered, working, and drivers know how to log in and certify daily
Projected: could improve up to 10 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Controlled Substances/Alcohol needs attention · low impact
• Review recent inspections with violations in this BASIC and take remedial action with drivers/equipment
