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.

Not enough record to grade yet.

25 inspections and 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one. It leans better than similar fleets (about a 60% chance), but not by enough to grade.

Similar fleets: for-hire 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.

Per truck, fleets like this one are expected to crash about 1.8× as often as the median active fleet of 10–19 trucks.

80% likely range 0.37×–1.57×

A record this thin can't pin that down: about a 1-in-10 chance it runs at Poor-level crash rates.

Loss runs for the last 3 years, and confirm the fleet is operating at its filed size (9 power units).
What the record shows
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 0.7 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 2.07× and out-of-service orders 1.37× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +10%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

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.

  • Drivers put out of service
    2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 hours of service (Aug 2025).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
Strengths
  • 1 crash in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
