High-Risk Cargo
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.

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 20–49 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 0.4× as often as the median active fleet of 20–49 trucks.

What's driving the grade
Crash history

Leans better, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.3 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Better than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.76× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they barely move its crash estimate.

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.

  • Drivers put out of service
    2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 hours of service (Sep 2025 – Jun 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Brakes and cargo securement
    Brakes are 8 of 22 violations (36%). Brake or cargo securement defects led to 3 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Hazmat violations
    2 hazmat violations.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
