Latest inspection 2026-10-06 · 11 new since the Sep 2026 run. “Projected” recomputes the SMS formula on today’s record — an estimate, not an official FMCSA figure. 1 post-accident inspection among the new ones — projection may read high and self-corrects at the next run. “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

A high share of violations are occurring in WA · medium impact

• Review the inspections from WA to spot recurring issues

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

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

Speeding 68% · Following / lane / reckless 28% · Seat belt 4%

• 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 26 pts in ~12 months if worked down.

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

False log / RODS 37% · Following / lane / reckless 36% · Log / ELD device 27%

• 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 23 pts in ~12 months if worked down.

Driver qualification / CDL / medical violations are the leading contributor to Driver Fitness · low impact

Driver qualification / CDL / medical 100%

• Run a credential-expiration tracker; keep DQ files complete and the medical card on the driver

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 44% (8 OOS) · Tires 25% (8 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 11% (3 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 29 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
