Motor Vehicles, Drive/Tow Away, Machinery Large, Oilfield Equipment, General Freight

Note: "General Freight" is a catch-all; the actual cargo mix and its risk may differ.

Estimated from the commodity types reported to FMCSA, not from loss history or the true cargo mix.

Upside Withheld

Its risk relativity (0.74× similar fleets) would put it in Strong; this rule holds it at Satisfactory:

  • Strong withheld: the posterior is not confident enough that risk sits below 0.76× class

The downside is never capped.

Expected crash rate is probably lower than similar fleets (about a 90% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: for-hire fleets of 100–199 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Lower so far, not yet proven. 5 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 2.5 a year), including 1 with injuries; similar fleets have about 4.3 a year. Too short a record to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 5% below typical. The grade counts 9 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Better than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.29× and violations 0.29× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -22%.

Worth a closer look

From the FMCSA record. The grade already counts the safety items; insurance filings and links to other motor carriers are not in it.

  • Injury crashes
    1 crash with 2 people hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Drivers put out of service
    3 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 no valid CDL, 1 cargo securement (Jul 2025 – Jul 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Lights and brakes
    Lights are 19 of 74 violations (26%). Light or brake defects led to 9 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Hazmat violations
    2 hazmat violations.
Strengths
  • Driver out-of-service rate 3.2% vs 6.7% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 1
