Latest inspection 2026-08-24. “Projected” recomputes the SMS formula on today’s record — an estimate, not an official FMCSA figure. “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
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
Following / lane / reckless violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · medium impact
Following / lane / reckless 63% · Speeding 37%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
Projected: could improve up to 53 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
False log / RODS violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · medium impact
False log / RODS 93% (1 OOS) · Log / ELD device 7%
• 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 14 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
