Vehicle Maintenance: Violations related to vehicle condition, including brakes, lights, cargo securement, and other mechanical issues.
The risk score evaluates each carrier's safety performance, combining key factors to provide a comprehensive safety assessment.
Purpose of the Risk Score: The score identifies carriers with higher safety risks by analyzing critical safety factors and providing actionable insights for improvement.
Factors Included in the Score: Combines unsafe driving, hours of service, driver fitness, substance use, and vehicle maintenance measures into a single metric.
Weight Distribution: Each factor is weighted based on its impact on safety, with unsafe driving and compliance having the highest influence.
Data Sources: Derived from regulatory records, inspection results, and carrier-reported data, ensuring a robust and accurate evaluation.
