Interventions are selected by weighing the following factors: SMS percentile ranks including number of BASICs over the threshold, intervention history, and time since last intervention. Higher percentile ranks could cause a motor carrier to enter, or remain in the pool of carriers with deficient BASICs if the percentile ranks pass the intervention thresholds. Increased percentiles may make a carrier subject to more severe interventions.
