General Freight, Refrigerated Food, Meat

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 a 70% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of 10–19 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

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
    6 out-of-service violations against drivers: 3 no valid CDL, 2 hours of service, 1 English proficiency (Mar 2025 – Nov 2025).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Brakes and tires
    Brakes are 19 of 66 violations (29%). Brake or tire defects led to 8 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Falsified logs
    6 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 1
  • High speeding: 5
