Latest inspection 2026-09-25 · 4 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
Following / lane / reckless violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · high impact
Following / lane / reckless 70% (2 OOS) · False log / RODS 18% (2 OOS) · Hours exceeded 9% (1 OOS)
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
• Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight
Projected: could improve up to 23 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Lighting / lamps violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · high impact
Lighting / lamps 49% (6 OOS) · Tires 23% (6 OOS) · Brakes 20% (5 OOS)
• Walk the lights every pre-trip and carry spare bulbs/fuses; clean lenses and check the trailer plug
• Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight
Projected: could improve up to 43 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Vehicle and driver out-of-service rate exceeds the national average · high impact

Projected: could improve up to 20 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
