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 higher than similar fleets (about an 80% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: for-hire 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 1.5× as often as the median active fleet of 10–19 trucks.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans worse, not yet proven. 3 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.6 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 2.05×, violations 1.71× and out-of-service orders 1.27× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +15%. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.

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.

  • Lights and brakes
    Lights are 21 of 69 violations (30%). Light or brake defects led to 7 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    41.2% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (7 of 17). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.27× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
Strengths
  • 3 crashes in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • Driver out-of-service rate 3.8% vs 6.7% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 4
