Lighting / lamps 40% (1 OOS) · Brakes 30% (2 OOS) · Tires 24% (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 40 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Vehicle and driver out-of-service rate exceeds the national average · high impact
• Review recent inspections with out-of-service violations and fix the root causes with equipment and drivers
• Run a preventative-maintenance program; periodically inspect tires, brakes and lights
A high share of violations are occurring in Will County, IL · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Will County, IL to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Following / lane / reckless violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · low impact
Following / lane / reckless 50% · Speeding 30% · Seat belt 20%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
Projected: could improve up to 15 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
