New violations in Hours of service

Apparently, two new violations have been added to carrier profiles on the FMCSA site. On the site, it reflects violations of the new HOS. 

"The system now codifides violations of the 30-minute break requirement of the new hours rule with a 7-point severity weight that contributes to the Hours of Service Compliance Behavioral Analysis and Safety Improvement Category.

The second new violation added into the CSA system is related to alcohol possession and brings a severity weight of 3 to the Controlled Substances/Alcohol BASIC. The new codification allows roadside inspectors to distinguish between alcohol possession and use, as the use/under-the-influence violation is a 5-point weight."
