Driver behavior is measured using an Average Review Points ranking system that is similar to the points system used against driver's licenses. Drivers are graded through an A through F scale based on the number of occurrences a driver is cited for offenses that fall under one of the levels of severity defined as a Caution, Warning, or Severe. A driver ranking is also influenced by the number of hours a driver has been behind the wheel.  A higher number of driving hours equates to a higher driver score.  There are no default values for driver criteria. The driver criteria is unique based on how it was created by the fleet manager.

 

The driver rankings are color keyed. Each driver listed on the Driver Rankings box has a grade that is assigned a unique color.
