Tires 43% (23 OOS) · Brakes 31% (12 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 13% (5 OOS)

• 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
A high share of violations are occurring in Washington County, MN · medium impact
