Latest inspection 2026-09-22 · 2 new since the Sep 2026 run. “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 50% · Following / lane / reckless 36% · Other 14%
• Zero-tolerance belt policy; verify with in-cab camera or spot checks
Projected: could improve up to 22 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 81% (7 OOS) · Following / lane / reckless 10% (1 OOS) · Other 9% (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 11 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
English language violations are the leading contributor to Driver Fitness · high impact
English language 60% (4 OOS) · Driver qualification / CDL / medical 40% (2 OOS)
• Assess English proficiency at hire and provide support/training where needed
• Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight
Projected: could improve up to 18 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
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
Lighting / lamps violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · medium impact
Lighting / lamps 30% (1 OOS) · Tires 23% · Inspection / repair / DVIR 19%
• Walk the lights every pre-trip and carry spare bulbs/fuses; clean lenses and check the trailer plug
• Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight
Projected: could improve up to 28 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
A high share of violations are occurring in Leavenworth County, KS · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Leavenworth County, KS to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
