Recommendations — what's driving each score
Vehicle 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 Olmsted County, MN · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Olmsted County, MN 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 27% · Seat belt 23%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
Projected: could improve up to 15 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Log / ELD device violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · low impact
Log / ELD device 75% · Hours exceeded 18% · False log / RODS 8%
• Make sure the ELD is registered, working, and drivers know how to log in and certify daily
Projected: could improve up to 24 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
