49 inspections and 4 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

Similar fleets: for-hire 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.

What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
Too little record to tell. 4 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 2 a year), including 1 with injuries; similar fleets have about 1.4 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Better than peers. Out-of-service orders 0.42× and violations 0.59× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -11%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.
