Latest inspection 2026-09-29 · 3 new since the Sep 2026 run. “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
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
A high share of violations are occurring in MN · medium impact
• Review the inspections from MN to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Driver Fitness 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
Tires violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · low impact
Tires 33% (3 OOS) · Load securement 28% (2 OOS) · Brakes 22% (1 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 22 pts in ~12 months if worked down.

90-day safety improvement plan
Last 90 days: 5 inspections, 6 violations, 3 OOS, 1 clean · trending worse.
1. Other4 viol · 3 OOS · 67%
393.110B, 393.100B, 393.47A
✓ Carry extra straps/chains and know the working-load-limit math
✓ Re-check securement in the first 50 miles and at every stop
2. Unsafe Driving2 viol · 33%
392.2-SLLSWZ, 392.2-SLLS2
✓ Coach speed and following distance — Unsafe Driving points are weighted heavily
✓ Hands off the phone; always belt up
≈ 8 clean inspections would cut this BASIC ~25% (to 0.315).
