Out-of-service trend· any OOS · all inspection levels · 6-month trailing

14.8% · latest 6-mo window▲ Rising

Share of all roadside inspections — vehicle checks and driver-only checks alike — that ended in any out-of-service order, vehicle or driver. Trending up 3.1 pts across the window. It is a different measure from the vehicle-OOS rate beside it — not the same rate over a shorter window — so the two are not directly comparable, and the national vehicle benchmark is not applied to this line.
