Latest inspection 2026-09-08. “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
Seat belt violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · high impact
Seat belt 65% · Following / lane / reckless 35%
• Zero-tolerance belt policy; verify with in-cab camera or spot checks
Projected: could improve up to 33 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
A high share of violations are occurring in SC · medium impact
• Review the inspections from SC to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Hours-of-Service Compliance needs attention · low impact
• Review recent inspections with violations in this BASIC and take remedial action with drivers/equipment
Controlled Substances/Alcohol needs attention · low impact
• Review recent inspections with violations in this BASIC and take remedial action with drivers/equipment
