Brakes violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · high impact

• Fix air-loss and warning-light faults before dispatch — don’t “drive it in”
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
