Recommendations — what's driving each score
Hours exceeded violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · high impact
Hours exceeded 64% · Log / ELD device 30% · Other 7%
• Plan loads around available hours; use ELD alerts before drivers run out of clock
Projected: could improve up to 28 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
A high share of violations are occurring in Freeborn County, MN · medium impact
• Review the inspections from Freeborn County, MN to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Speeding violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · low impact
Speeding 38% · Seat belt 32% · Phone / texting 23%
• Coach the drivers with speeding violations directly — Unsafe Driving points are weighted heavily
• Set and enforce a governed road speed; review telematics/dashcam speed events weekly
Projected: could improve up to 19 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
• Review recent inspections with violations in this BASIC and take remedial action with drivers/equipment
Lighting / lamps violations are the leading contributor to Vehicle Maintenance · low impact
Lighting / lamps 54% (3 OOS) · Brakes 25% (1 OOS) · Other 6%
• Walk the lights every pre-trip and carry spare bulbs/fuses; clean lenses and check the trailer plug
• Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight
Projected: could improve up to 47 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
