General Freight, Household Goods, Refrigerated Food, Meat

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 about the same as similar fleets.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of 500+ trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

▲ Similar fleets 1.0×
Leaning Marginal. Its estimate (1.07× similar fleets) is in the Marginal range, but the record isn't strong enough to be 60% sure it is above the Marginal line (1.06×), so the grade stays Satisfactory.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Worse than peers. 127 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 64 a year), including 5 fatal (5 deaths) and 42 with injuries; similar fleets have about 68 a year. The grade counts 224 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Better than peers. Violations 0.42×, out-of-service orders 0.58× and unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.77× 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.

    Why this link: FMCSA crash report TX7GNBHQE1WW (Department of Public Safety, State) lists MVT SERVICES LLC’s truck in this crash. This third-party news report covers a crash with the same date, place and number of deaths, matched automatically. It may not name MVT SERVICES LLC and doesn't establish fault. Wrong article?

About “In the news”: these links go to third-party news reports that FRED Score matched automatically to FMCSA crash records — same date and place, with a truck or bus involved, and the same number of deaths or, for a crash that released hazardous materials, the release — and checked a second time before showing. A link doesn't mean this motor carrier caused the crash: FMCSA crash reports don't assign fault, and news coverage can be incomplete or wrong. FRED Score doesn't verify or endorse what the articles say.
