Advisory Grade — Outside the Ranked Book

Fleets under 10 power units are graded against their size cohort (pu6_9) for reference, but sit outside the 10+ power-unit underwriting book the FRED rank covers.

Mileage Unreliable

MCS-150 annual mileage appears too low for fleet size given observed activity. The per-100k-mile rate benchmarks on this page are excluded; the FRED grade does not use mileage (crash exposure is power-unit-years, violation exposure is inspection counts).

Not enough record to grade yet.

8 inspections and 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of 6–9 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

A record this thin can't pin that down: about a 1-in-4 chance it runs at Poor-level crash rates.

Loss runs for the last 3 years, and confirm the fleet is operating at its filed size (8 power units).
What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
Higher so far, not yet proven. 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.2 a year. Too few crashes to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 13% above typical.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Out-of-service orders 2.40× and violations 1.71× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.56×. Together they move its crash estimate +5%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

Worth a closer look

From the FMCSA record. The estimate already counts the safety items; insurance filings and links to other motor carriers are context only.

  • Driver qualification
    2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 no valid CDL (Sep 2025 – Feb 2026).
    Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.
Strengths
  • 1 crash in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
Data flags
  • Unreliable reported mileage
    The motor carrier's self-reported annual mileage (MCS-150) looks implausible, so exposure- and mileage-based figures may be distorted.
  • Estimated mileage
    No usable mileage was reported, so exposure was estimated from similar motor carriers. Mileage-based metrics here are approximate.
