Cargo

27.6
low risk
Other: STONE LIME Coal/Coke Garbage/Refuse

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

Expected crash rate is probably lower than similar fleets (about an 80% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of 10–19 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

Per truck, fleets like this one are expected to crash about 1.6× as often as the median active fleet of 10–19 trucks.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
About typical. 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.6 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much better than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.46×, violations 0.49× and out-of-service orders 0.58× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -17%. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.

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.

  • Brakes and cargo securement
    Brakes are 4 of 13 violations (31%). Brake or cargo securement defects led to 4 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Strengths
  • 1 crash in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 11.5% vs 22.3% national; driver 0.0% vs 6.7%.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
