Following / lane / reckless violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · low impact
Following / lane / reckless 34% · Speeding 26% · Seat belt 22%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline

Tires 31% (6 OOS) · Load securement 29% (7 OOS) · Lighting / lamps 22% (2 OOS)
