    LOW! 0 is best. 75% and your guaranteed to get pulled in at every scale.

    Yeah Lower is better,below 49 the scale doesn,t look at you,50 and above optional, the higher the # the better chance of them looking at your log book and dot ing you. In july 2010 we all get our own safety stat rating,not sure how far they go back. Even warnings for speeding,equipment,etc. go on it.

    You should share our driver scores. Then you could feel REAL pain.

    They pull us over, just to take a peek at our log books. It gets rather annoying after awhile. Especially when it just a handfull of clowns that have caused the issue.

    Our equipment is excellent. They hardly glance at it.

    Don't confuse the Safety Evaluation Area (SEA) Scores with the Safestat score. Carriers that are Safestat Category A or B for two months in a six month period will recieve a compliance review. The Safestat score is determined by the SEA scores and accident ratio.

    "A" is bad "H" is good.

    SEA Scores have three areas: Driver. Vehicle, and Safety Management.

    The Inspections Selection System (ISS) is used by roadside inspectors to choose carriers for inspection.

    You can see your company's ISS score at http://ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/SafeStat/SafeStatMain.asp?PageN=results using Safestat on-line. Once you find your company using its US DOT number or name select the ISS-D hot link on the lower right corner of the page. A window will pop up telling you the carrier's score and whether it's a "Pass", "Optional" or "Inspect" score.

    Be safe.

    Mike_MD;

    Is there a percentile ranking component figured in to the ISS-D score?

    I.E. a score of 20 would mean 19% of scored carriers have a higher ranking, 89% have a lower ranking.

    Mike,

    I do not think that we are privy to the A or H rating. I cannot find it anywhere.
