19 inspections and 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

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 1.6× as often as the median active fleet of 10–19 trucks.

What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
About typical. 1 injury crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.6 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Worse than peers. Violations 1.92×, out-of-service orders 1.72× and unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.38× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +14%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.

Worth a closer look

From the FMCSA record. The estimate already counts the safety items; insurance filings and links to other motor carriers are context only.

  • Injury crashes
    1 crash with 1 person hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Lapse in liability filings
    153 days without a liability filing on FMCSA's record, the longest of 2 lapses in 36 months 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.
  • Drivers put out of service
    3 out-of-service violations against drivers: 3 hours of service (Dec 2024 – Feb 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 18 of 45 violations (40%). Brake or light defects led to 4 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    38.5% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (5 of 13). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.72× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    15.8% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (3 of 19). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.72× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
