Recommendations — what's driving each score
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 Orangeburg County, SC · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Orangeburg County, SC 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 75% · Speeding 25%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
Projected: could improve up to 11 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
