Recommendations — what's driving each score
English language violations are the leading contributor to Driver Fitness · high impact
English language 100%
• Assess English proficiency at hire and provide support/training where needed
Projected: could improve up to 34 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
A high share of violations are occurring in San Diego County, CA · medium impact
• Review the inspections from San Diego County, CA to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Hours-of-Service Compliance 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
Brakes violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · low impact
Brakes 31% (19 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 24% (20 OOS) · Tires 21% (11 OOS)
• Check brake adjustment and listen for air leaks every pre-trip; put brakes on the PM schedule
• Fix air-loss and warning-light faults before dispatch — don’t “drive it in”
Projected: could improve up to 32 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
