medium risk
Metal: Sheets/Coils/Rolls General Freight Beverages Paper Products
High-Risk Cargo
General Freight

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.

Expected crash rate is probably lower than similar fleets (about a 70% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of 20–49 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
Leans better, not yet proven. 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1 a year); similar fleets have about 1.4 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
About typical. Out-of-service orders, violations and unsafe-driving or hours-of-service violations are all close to the rate expected for its inspections. 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.

  • Drivers put out of service
    4 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 hours of service, 2 no valid CDL (Oct 2025 – Dec 2025).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Brakes and tires
    Brakes are 30 of 95 violations (32%). Brake or tire defects led to 19 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Falsified logs
    2 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    36.0% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (18 of 50), but across all its inspections out-of-service orders are 1.13× what's expected for where and how it's inspected, the measure the grade uses.
Strengths
  • 2 crashes in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • Driver out-of-service rate 3.8% vs 6.7% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
