Recommendations — what's driving each score
Lighting / lamps violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · medium impact
Lighting / lamps 48% · Tires 27% (4 OOS) · Brakes 10% (2 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 44 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
A high share of violations are occurring in Baltimore city, MD · medium impact
