Recommendations — what's driving each score
Log / ELD device violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · high impact
Log / ELD device 66% (3 OOS) · False log / RODS 34% (1 OOS)
• Make sure the ELD is registered, working, and drivers know how to log in and certify daily
• Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight
Projected: could improve up to 28 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
Tires violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · medium impact
Tires 48% (3 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 19% (1 OOS) · Load securement 13% (2 OOS)
• 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 38 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
A high share of violations are occurring in Albany County, WY · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Albany County, WY to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
