Recommendations — what's driving each score

• 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 50% · Following / lane / reckless 25% · Seat belt 14%
• Coach the drivers with speeding violations directly — Unsafe Driving points are weighted heavily

Projected: could improve up to 5 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Log / ELD device violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · low impact
Log / ELD device 92% · Other 8%
• Make sure the ELD is registered, working, and drivers know how to log in and certify daily
Projected: could improve up to 3 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Driver Fitness 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
Tires violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · low impact
Tires 44% (9 OOS) · Brakes 26% (4 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 11% (2 OOS)
• Gauge and thump every tire on the walk-around, including inner duals
