Advisory Grade — Outside the Ranked Book

Fleets under 10 power units are graded against their size cohort (pu1) for reference, but sit outside the 10+ power-unit underwriting book the FRED rank covers.

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: interstate fleets of 1 truck 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 2.2× as often as the median active fleet of 1 truck.

▲ Similar fleets 1.0×
Leaning Poor. Its estimate (1.85× similar fleets) is in the Poor range, but the record isn't strong enough to be 60% sure it is above the Poor line (1.57×), so the grade stays Marginal.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans worse, not yet proven. 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.1 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Violations 1.46× and out-of-service orders 1.27× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.77×. Together they barely move its crash estimate. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.

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.

  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 6 of 11 violations (55%). Brake or light defects led to 2 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Strengths
  • 1 crash in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
