Log / ELD device violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · low impact
Log / ELD device 85% · False log / RODS 15%
• 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.
Driver Fitness 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

Tires 52% (7 OOS) · Brakes 17% (2 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 13%
• Gauge and thump every tire on the walk-around, including inner duals
• Replace before tread hits the limit; correct low pressure immediately
