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.

Expected crash rate is about 18% lower than similar fleets.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of about 45 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.
