Latest inspection 2026-08-16. “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

Speeding violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · high impact

Speeding 42% · Following / lane / reckless 30% · Phone / texting 29%

• Coach the drivers with speeding violations directly — Unsafe Driving points are weighted heavily

• Set and enforce a governed road speed; review telematics/dashcam speed events weekly

Projected: could improve up to 18 pts in ~12 months if worked down.

A high share of violations are occurring in Tolland County, CT · medium impact

• Review the inspections from Tolland County, CT to spot recurring issues

• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical

False log / RODS violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · low impact

False log / RODS 87% (2 OOS) · Log / ELD device 13%

• Audit ELD edits and duty-status annotations weekly; a false log is a high-severity, high-visibility violation

• Retrain on correct logging and never letting a load pressure a driver into a false entry

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

Controlled Substances/Alcohol needs attention · low impact

• Review recent inspections with violations in this BASIC and take remedial action with drivers/equipment

Lighting / lamps violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · low impact

Lighting / lamps 47% (1 OOS) · Brakes 30% · Tires 8% (1 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 23 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
