Advisory Grade — Outside the Ranked Book

Fleets under 10 power units are graded against their size cohort (pu6_9) for reference, but sit outside the 10+ power-unit underwriting book the FRED rank covers.

Not enough record to grade yet.

10 inspections and 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

Similar fleets: for-hire fleets of 6–9 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

A record this thin can't pin that down: about a 1-in-5 chance it runs at Poor-level crash rates.

Ask
Loss runs for the last 3 years, and confirm the fleet is operating at its filed size (1 power unit).
What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
Higher so far, not yet proven. 1 fatal crash (1 death) on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.2 a year. Too few crashes to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 5% above typical.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Violations 2.19× and out-of-service orders 1.95× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.50×. Together they move its crash estimate +4%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.

Worth a closer look

From the FMCSA record. The estimate already counts the safety items; insurance filings and links to other motor carriers are context only.

  • Fatal crash
    1 crash with 1 fatality in 24 months (most recent Feb 28, 2025).
    Ask: the accident register and loss runs for these crashes.
  • Driver qualification
    5 out-of-service violations against drivers: 5 no valid CDL (Oct 2024 – Aug 2025).
    Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.
  • Lights and brakes
    Lights are 15 of 49 violations (31%). Light or brake defects led to 1 out-of-service order.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    40.0% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (4 of 10). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.95× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
Strengths
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
