Per truck, fleets like this one are expected to crash about 1.6× as often as the median active fleet of 50–99 trucks.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans better, not yet proven. 6 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 3 a year), including 1 fatal (1 death) and 4 with injuries; similar fleets have about 6.3 a year. The grade counts 10 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Better than peers. Violations 0.49× and out-of-service orders 0.51× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -11%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.
