Recommendations — what's driving each score

Following / lane / reckless 73% · Phone / texting 15% · Speeding 12%

• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Log / ELD device violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · low impact
Log / ELD device 65% · Other 15% (1 OOS) · Following / lane / reckless 15%
• 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 20 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
