High-Risk Cargo
Motor Vehicles, Machinery Large, 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 higher than similar fleets (about a 70% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: for-hire fleets of 200–499 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 0.5× as often as the median active fleet of 200–499 trucks.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans worse, not yet proven. 12 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 6 a year), including 6 with injuries; similar fleets have about 4 a year. The grade counts 18 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.90× the rate expected for its inspections, but out-of-service orders 0.31× and violations 0.50×. Together they move its crash estimate -7%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

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.

  • Injury crashes
    6 crashes with 7 people hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Lights and brakes
    Lights are 20 of 121 violations (17%). Light or brake defects led to 5 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Unsafe driving
    Cited 8 for speeding 15+ mph over or in a work zone and 8 for phone use.
    Ask: telematics, speed governance and phone policy.
  • Hazmat violations
    2 hazmat violations.
Strengths
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 8.8% vs 22.3% national; driver 0.0% vs 6.7%.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 10
  • Excessive speeding: 14
  • Canada-domiciled motor carrier
    Domiciled in Canada — cross-border operating rules and inspection patterns differ from US-based motor carriers.
