12 inspections and 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

Similar fleets: for-hire 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 the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
About typical. 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1 a year); similar fleets have about 0.9 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Worse than peers. Out-of-service orders 1.96×, unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.76× and violations 1.74× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +17%.

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.

    4 out-of-service violations against drivers: 3 no valid CDL, 1 hours of service (Jul 2025 – Sep 2025).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    25.0% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (3 of 12). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.96× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
Strengths
  • 2 crashes in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
