Recommendations — what's driving each score
A high share of violations are occurring in KS · medium impact
• Review the inspections from KS to spot recurring issues
• 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 100%
• Make sure the ELD is registered, working, and drivers know how to log in and certify daily
Projected: could improve up to 20 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Controlled Substances/Alcohol needs attention · low impact
• Review recent inspections with violations in this BASIC and take remedial action with drivers/equipment
Emergency equipment violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · low impact
Emergency equipment 33% · Other 29% · Lighting / lamps 24%
• Verify the extinguisher gauge is in the green and secured; keep a full set of warning triangles
• Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight
Projected: could improve up to 6 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
