The verdict

TRICITIES: 3.0 TCR = 67% of TRANSPORTATION BLS 4.5 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

TRICITIES safety composite

TRICITIES scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 86% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 50%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
