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: below-average vehicle out-of-service rate, below-average driver out-of-service rate. Remaining bonus would need: a crash-free 24 months; an official FMCSA Satisfactory rating (most carriers are never rated).
