What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans better, not yet proven. 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 1.5 a year. The grade counts 5 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 2.49×, out-of-service orders 1.64× and violations 1.40× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +18%. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.
