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.

Upside Withheld

Its risk relativity (0.54× similar fleets) would put it in Excellent; this rule holds it at Strong:

  • Excellent withheld: driver-behaviour relativity above 1.0×

The downside is never capped.

Expected crash rate is about half that of similar fleets.

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.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Better than peers. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 1.7 a year. The grade counts 1 crash in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
About typical. Out-of-service orders, violations and unsafe-driving or hours-of-service violations are all close to the rate expected for its inspections. 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.

  • Drivers put out of service
    7 out-of-service violations against drivers: 5 hours of service, 2 no valid CDL (Dec 2024 – Sep 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 79 of 271 violations (29%). Brake or light defects led to 31 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    28.4% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (55 of 194). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.21× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
  • Falsified logs
    9 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.
