Cargo

57.1
medium risk
Intermodal Containers General Freight Dry Bulk
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 10–19 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
Lower so far, not yet proven. 1 injury crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.8 a year. Too short a record to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 14% below typical.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Out-of-service orders 1.54× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.58×. Together they barely move its crash estimate: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

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.

  • Injury crashes
    1 crash with 2 people hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Drivers put out of service
    3 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 no valid CDL, 1 hours of service (Oct 2024 – Sep 2025).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Lights and brakes
    Lights are 12 of 48 violations (25%). Light or brake defects led to 7 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    35.3% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (12 of 34). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.54× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
Strengths
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
