We got two OOS violations is a fairly short period a few years ago (one for a tail light, and one for loose binder). Since those were the only inspections we had during that period, our OOS rate was also 100%. We don't use brokers so our OOS rate didn't really affect us.

Secondly,You Made your Bed- So the best advice I can Give you is Find Direct business-Hire a Salesman to get you some business.
Because the Brokers like to Sniff around a carriers CSA scores- I Don't know what else to tell you- maybe Lose your Authority and Start with a new Name, I Don't Know-Hope you learned a good lesson here -

I was actually driving the truck that got the OOS tail light. Light was working during pre-trip that morning, it was raining really hard and it looks like the seal was compromised and the water on the bulb caused it to blow. The Trooper gave me a warning and let me travel to the truck stop at the next exit to fix it (instead on the side of the road in the rain), but the OOS was still reported.
OLDSKOOLERnWV and TopDog20 Thank this. -
I remember many years ago when this was not a rule, performing an inspection for a driver who stopped in and requested it. Unfortunately, the driver was suspended and placed out of service.jammer910Z Thanks this. -

The way the system is set up, the only thing you can do is to keep your equipment and drivers in compliance for if or when you are selected for an inspection. Then with time, any current CVSA points showing on your score, will eventually drop off.TopDog20 Thanks this. -
In cab live measering system. -
Its fair because there is no system here being used to single you out.
You got caught and that's alright because that's what the system is supposed to be like.
If it wasn't random, then we would have all kinds of crap rolling down the road.
YOU have an authority and unless you contract with a temp service and get his file in your system as part of the contract, he is a new hire and processes as a new hire. He isn't a product that you rent or borrow.
To the blue part - you don't give a crap what others do, you have a policy and follow it WITH NO EXCEPTIONS.
