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.

Not enough record to grade yet.

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

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.

Loss runs for the last 3 years, and confirm the fleet is operating at its filed size (27 power units).
What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
Higher so far, not yet proven. 3 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.9 a year. Too few crashes to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 5% above typical. The grade counts 4 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 2.10× and violations 1.28× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +11%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

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.
