What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans worse, not yet proven. 30 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 15 a year), including 1 fatal (1 death) and 6 with injuries; similar fleets have about 8.9 a year. The grade counts 35 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 2.24× and out-of-service orders 1.35× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +13%: 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 grade already counts the safety items; insurance filings and links to other motor carriers are not in it.

  • Fatal crash
    1 crash with 1 fatality in 24 months (most recent Oct 26, 2025).
    Ask: the accident register and loss runs for these crashes.
  • Injury crashes

    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Drivers put out of service
    51 out-of-service violations against drivers: 37 hours of service, 10 no valid CDL, 4 English proficiency (Sep 2024 – Sep 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 289 of 1065 violations (27%). Brake or light defects led to 89 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    28.6% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (174 of 609). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.35× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
  • Falsified logs

Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 45
