Latest inspection 2026-09-08. “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

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 Bucks County, PA · medium impact

• Review the inspections from Bucks County, PA to spot recurring issues

• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical

Hours-of-Service Compliance needs attention · low impact

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

Controlled Substances/Alcohol needs attention · low impact

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

Tires violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · low impact

Tires 42% (4 OOS) · Brakes 21% · Lighting / lamps 13% (1 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 35 pts in ~12 months if worked down.

✓ Check brake adjustment and listen for air leaks every pre-trip

✓ Fix air-loss and warning-light faults before dispatch; put brakes on the PM schedule

≈ 7 clean inspections would cut this BASIC ~25% (to 4.29).
