SafetyBonus points for a demonstrably clean record: enough recent inspections with below-average out-of-service rates and no crashes. Never subtracts — thin data simply earns no bonus.

Safety bonus earned for: no crashes in 24 months, Satisfactory FMCSA rating. Remaining bonus would need: more vehicle inspections on record; more driver inspections on record.
