64.0
medium risk
General Freight
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.

Per truck, fleets like this one are expected to crash about 1.7× as often as the median active fleet of 10–19 trucks.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans better, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.6 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Worse than peers. Out-of-service orders 1.67× and unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.33× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +6%: 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.

  • Drivers put out of service
    4 out-of-service violations against drivers: 1 medical certificate, 1 other qualification, 1 no valid CDL (Oct 2025 – Aug 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    26.1% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (6 of 23). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.67× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 3
  • Substance violations: 2
