Recommendations — what's driving each score
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
Tires violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · medium impact
Tires 52% (11 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 23% (3 OOS) · Brakes 22% (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 45 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
A high share of violations are occurring in Union County, SD · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Union County, SD to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Seat belt violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · low impact
Seat belt 66% · Speeding 19% · Phone / texting 10%
• Zero-tolerance belt policy; verify with in-cab camera or spot checks
Projected: could improve up to 5 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 72% · Other 28%
• Make sure the ELD is registered, working, and drivers know how to log in and certify daily
Projected: could improve up to 12 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Driver Fitness needs attention · low impact
• Review recent inspections with violations in this BASIC and take remedial action with drivers/equipment
