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.

Mileage Unreliable

MCS-150 annual mileage appears too low for fleet size given observed activity. The per-100k-mile rate benchmarks on this page are excluded; the FRED grade does not use mileage (crash exposure is power-unit-years, violation exposure is inspection counts).

Intrastate operation

Runs within Texas only. Intrastate fleets in Texas are inspected about 1 a year for every 3 trucks; interstate fleets, about 1 a year for every 2 trucks. Its roadside record counts the same way as an interstate fleet's.

Not enough record to grade yet.

68 inspections and 3 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

Similar fleets: intrastate fleets of 50–99 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 0.6× as often as the median active fleet of 50–99 trucks.

What the record shows

Crash history

betterworse

Leans worse, not yet proven. 3 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1.5 a year), including 1 fatal (1 death) and 2 with injuries; similar fleets have about 1.2 a year. The grade counts 6 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.

Roadside inspections

betterworse

Mixed. Violations 1.96× and out-of-service orders 1.56× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.31×. 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 Dec 17, 2024).

Ask: the accident register and loss runs for these crashes.
FMCSA BASIC alert

Over FMCSA's intervention threshold in driver fitness.

Ask: any FMCSA warning letters and the corrective-action plan.
Injury crashes

2 crashes with 2 people hurt in 24 months.

Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
Drivers put out of service

6 out-of-service violations against drivers: 5 no valid CDL, 1 hours of service (Jan 2025 – Jul 2026).

Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
Lights and brakes

Lights are 124 of 303 violations (41%). Light or brake defects led to 16 out-of-service orders.

Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Vehicle out-of-service rate

45.5% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 30.6% for intrastate motor carriers (30 of 66). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.56× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.

Data flags

Unreliable reported mileage
The motor carrier's self-reported annual mileage (MCS-150) looks implausible, so exposure- and mileage-based figures may be distorted.
Estimated mileage
No usable mileage was reported, so exposure was estimated from similar motor carriers. Mileage-based metrics here are approximate.

Checking FMCSA…

No MC, FF or MX docket on FMCSA's registration for this motor carrier, so there are no insurance filings to show. FMCSA collects filings only from registered for-hire authorities; other motor carriers keep proof of insurance (MCS-90) at their place of business.

FMCSA filings only, not a policy audit. Not part of the FRED grade. Wrong or out of date?

How the estimate is calculated

The model, its inputs, the window it scored and its confidence. For actuaries and anyone checking the work.

Forward 12-Month Risk Outlook

The FRED Score predicts this motor carrier's crash risk over the next 12 months — how often they're likely to crash and how severe those crashes tend to be — versus a typical fleet of its size (50 power units: 43 filed, 50 seen roadside in 24 months).

Actual, per year in window

2.0

Projected, next 12 mo

1.4

0 1.25 2.5

We'd expect a typical fleet of 50 power units this active to have about 1.2 crashes a year (sized from the 50 units seen roadside; 43 filed). This motor carrier recorded 6 in its scoring window (Sep 1, 2023 → Aug 31, 2026, about 2.0 a year) — about 1.7× a typical fleet. Factoring in its inspection and violation record inside that window and the credibility of its own experience, the model projects about 1.4 over the next 12 — about 1.2× the typical fleet. When this motor carrier does crash, those crashes tend to be substantially more severe than average — roughly 3.3× the injury/fatal weight of a typical crash.

Fatal-crash risk: about 4% chance in the next 12 months

Modeled fatal-crash rate is about typical for similar fleets (likelihood of at least one fatal crash, from its exposure and safety profile).

Track Record Used

Crashes Sep 1, 2023 → Aug 31, 2026 · inspections Oct 1, 2024 → Sep 30, 2026 · data as of Oct 29, 2026

Inside that window: 67 inspections and 6 crashes. The FMCSA record tables now hold 68 inspections and 3 crashes in that window — the SMS data moved after this grade was computed.

Why there is no grade. Every grade but Satisfactory needs at least a 60% posterior past its cut; Satisfactory is what is left when none passes. Here the 80% likely range (0.53×–2.00×) still runs from below the Excellent cut (0.60×) to above the Poor cut (1.57×), so the record can't separate a best-in-class fleet from a poor one and the page shows no grade and no FRED Score. The forecasts are unchanged: in backtests, records this thin crash at their forecast on average but scatter about 2.6× as widely around it as records that support a Satisfactory grade.

Confidence: Moderate · Z = 0.52

Satisfactory — 1.20x its class rate (cuts: Excellent <0.60, Strong <0.76, Satisfactory <1.06, Marginal <1.57, Poor <2.11). Class rate 0.024 crashes per power-unit-year for a 50-unit for-hire fleet (pu50_99). Violations 0.96x (driver behaviour 0.31x, out-of-service 1.56x, all violations 1.96x; 67 inspections). Experience 1.26x: 2.6 decayed crashes against 1.8 expected over 36 months (credibility 0.52, a 1.60). 80% range 0.53–2.00x. Fleet sized at 50 units from roadside VINs (43 filed). Last change: no change since the last run.

No change since the previous weekly run.

Scoring flags MCS-150 mileage unreliable (mileage is not in the grade) Intrastate operation — rated against intrastate fleets (a class crash rate about 23% lower); roadside inspections are rarer, so the record rests more on crashes

What Drives This Score

1.00× = this motor carrier's class rate

FRED multiplies three factors: the class rate a fleet of this size, class and activity is expected to run, a violation relativity from its roadside record, and its own crash experience over 36 months weighted by how much exposure stands behind it. The grade is the band of the resulting relativity to class, then the screens.
