Latest inspection 2026-10-08 · 18 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
False log / RODS violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · high impact
False log / RODS 43% (1 OOS) · Log / ELD device 28% · Following / lane / reckless 23% (1 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 32 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
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
Following / lane / reckless violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · low impact
Following / lane / reckless 45% · Speeding 32% · Phone / texting 11%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
Projected: could improve up to 36 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Driver qualification / CDL / medical violations are the leading contributor to Driver Fitness · low impact
Driver qualification / CDL / medical 100% (1 OOS)
• Run a credential-expiration tracker; keep DQ files complete and the medical card on the driver
• Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight
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 40% (38 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 22% (15 OOS) · Brakes 17% (15 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 36 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
