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 an 80% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

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.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Lower so far, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.5 a year. Too short a record to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 12% below typical. The grade counts 1 crash in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Better than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.18×, out-of-service orders 0.50× and violations 0.75× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -24%. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.
