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
Leans better, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.5 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 3.01× and violations 1.93× the rate expected for its inspections, but out-of-service orders 0.51×. Together they move its crash estimate +13%: 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.

  • FMCSA BASIC alert
    Over FMCSA's intervention threshold in driver fitness.
    Ask: any FMCSA warning letters and the corrective-action plan.
  • Lapse in liability filings
    162 days without a liability filing on FMCSA's record (Nov 12, 2024 – Apr 23, 2025) while the authority required one. A filing received later can be back-dated and close a lapse. Not in the grade.
    Ask: what covered the fleet during the gap.
  • Driver qualification
    2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 no valid CDL (Jun 2025 – Aug 2025).
    Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 19 of 60 violations (32%). Brake or light defects led to 1 out-of-service order.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Falsified logs
    3 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 8.3% vs 22.3% national.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 2
