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
Lighting / lamps violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · medium impact
Lighting / lamps 37% (4 OOS) · Tires 29% (10 OOS) · Brakes 18% (4 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 38 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
A high share of violations are occurring in Monroe County, NY · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Monroe County, NY 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 41% · Phone / texting 36% · Following / lane / reckless 21%
• Zero-tolerance belt policy; verify with in-cab camera or spot checks
Projected: could improve up to 21 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
