• Run a preventative-maintenance program; periodically inspect tires, brakes and lights
A high share of violations are occurring in Merced County, CA · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Merced County, CA 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 68% · Other 32%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
Projected: could improve up to 27 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Controlled Substances/Alcohol needs attention · low impact

Tires 38% (4 OOS) · Brakes 19% · Lighting / lamps 17% (2 OOS)
• Gauge and thump every tire on the walk-around, including inner duals
