Recommendations — what's driving each score
Following / lane / reckless violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · high impact
Following / lane / reckless 59% · Phone / texting 22% · Speeding 20%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
Projected: could improve up to 21 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
False log / RODS violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · high impact
False log / RODS 41% (1 OOS) · Log / ELD device 30% · Following / lane / reckless 29% (2 OOS)
• 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 19 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 Columbia County, PA · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Columbia County, PA to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
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 41% (2 OOS) · Other 24% (1 OOS) · Inspection / repair / DVIR 14%
• Gauge and thump every tire on the walk-around, including inner duals
• Replace before tread hits the limit; correct low pressure immediately
Projected: could improve up to 35 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
