Latest inspection 2026-09-18. “Projected” recomputes the SMS formula on today’s record — an estimate, not an official FMCSA figure. “Est. %ile” is a VioCodes estimate of how the carrier ranks against its peers (FMCSA marks the percentile itself “Not Public”), shown as a likely range.
Recommendations — what's driving each score
Following / lane / reckless violations are the leading contributor to Hours-of-Service Compliance · medium impact
Following / lane / reckless 63% · Log / ELD device 18% · False log / RODS 10%
• Defensive-driving refresher on following distance and lane discipline
Projected: could improve up to 26 pts in ~12 months if worked down.
A high share of violations are occurring in MI · medium impact
• Review the inspections from MI 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 40% · Phone / texting 36% · Following / lane / reckless 18%
• 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 29 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
