Recommendations — what's driving each score
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
A high share of violations are occurring in ND · medium impact
• Review the inspections from ND to spot recurring issues
• Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical
Following / lane / reckless violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving · low impact
Following / lane / reckless 37% · Speeding 18% · Seat belt 17%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
Projected: could improve up to 4 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
Log / ELD device violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · low impact
Log / ELD device 73% · Following / lane / reckless 25% · Other 2%
• Make sure the ELD is registered, working, and drivers know how to log in and certify daily
Projected: could improve up to 11 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
