Latest inspection 2026-07-29. “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
Seat belt violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · high impact
Seat belt 53% · Speeding 47%

• Review recent inspections with violations in this BASIC and take remedial action with drivers/equipment

Brakes 51% · Lighting / lamps 33% · Other 11%
• Check brake adjustment and listen for air leaks every pre-trip; put brakes on the PM schedule
