The areas that have impacted us the most are traffic violations and equipment issues. Anytime there is a speeding event, rolling stop, or failure to obey traffic signs and signals, there is a significant impact on our safety score. Recurring equipment-related issues include low tire pressure, failing to conduct pre-trip inspections, lack of mudflaps, non-functional ABS indicator lights, and brake chafing. Some of these issues occur while you are on the road, which is why it is important to perform a good pre-trip and identify issues on the DVIR.
Please follow traffic laws, and do your best to help keep everyone safe on the road and avoid downtime.
