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.

Exposure Unverified

The expected crashes on this page assume the filed fleet of 21 power units is real, but the roadside record corroborates little of it — 4 units seen in 24 months, 0.14 inspections per filed unit-year. Verify the fleet size before relying on the crash expectation.

Mileage Unreliable

MCS-150 annual mileage appears too low for fleet size given observed activity. The per-100k-mile rate benchmarks on this page are excluded; the FRED grade does not use mileage (crash exposure is power-unit-years, violation exposure is inspection counts).

Not enough record to grade yet.

6 inspections and no crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one. It leans better than similar fleets (about a 70% chance), but not by enough to grade.

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 the record shows

Crash history

betterworse

Leans better, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.4 a year. The grade counts 1 crash in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.

Roadside inspections

betterworse

Much worse than peers. Violations 2.61×, out-of-service orders 1.86× and unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.39× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +18%.

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.

Drivers put out of service

2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 1 no valid CDL, 1 hours of service (Mar 2025 – Jan 2026).

Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
Lights and brakes

Lights are 5 of 16 violations (31%).

Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Filed fleet not seen on the road

Only 4 of the 21 filed power units were seen at a roadside inspection in 24 months (6 inspections in all). The crash expectation assumes all 21 are running.

Ask: how many trucks are actually operating, with the vehicle schedule (the MCS-150 was last updated Jun 2025).

Strengths

No reportable crashes in 24 months.

Data flags

Unreliable reported mileage
The motor carrier's self-reported annual mileage (MCS-150) looks implausible, so exposure- and mileage-based figures may be distorted.
Estimated mileage
No usable mileage was reported, so exposure was estimated from similar motor carriers. Mileage-based metrics here are approximate.

Checking FMCSA…

No MC, FF or MX docket on FMCSA's registration for this motor carrier, so there are no insurance filings to show. FMCSA collects filings only from registered for-hire authorities; other motor carriers keep proof of insurance (MCS-90) at their place of business.

FMCSA filings only, not a policy audit. Not part of the FRED grade. Wrong or out of date?

Forward 12-Month Risk Outlook

The FRED Score predicts this motor carrier's crash risk over the next 12 months — how often they're likely to crash and how severe those crashes tend to be — versus a typical fleet of its size (21 power units: 21 filed, 4 seen roadside in 24 months).

0.3

Projected, next 12 mo

0.3

0 0.25 0.5

We'd expect a typical fleet of 21 power units this active to have about 0.4 crashes a year — but only 4 of the 21 filed units were seen roadside in 24 months (0.14 inspections per filed unit-year), so this expectation assumes the filed fleet is real. This motor carrier recorded 1 in its scoring window (Oct 1, 2023 → Sep 30, 2026, about 0.3 a year). Factoring in its inspection and violation record inside that window and the credibility of its own experience, the model projects about 0.3 over the next 12 — below a typical fleet. When this motor carrier does crash, those crashes tend to be substantially more severe than average — roughly 3.3× the injury/fatal weight of a typical crash.

Fatal-crash risk: less than a 1% chance in the next 12 months

Modeled fatal-crash rate is about typical for similar fleets (likelihood of at least one fatal crash, from its exposure and safety profile; the filed fleet is not corroborated roadside).

Track Record Used

Crashes Oct 1, 2023 → Sep 30, 2026 · inspections Nov 1, 2024 → Oct 31, 2026 · data as of Nov 4, 2026

Inside that window: 6 inspections and 1 crash. The FMCSA record tables now hold 6 inspections and 0 crashes in that window — the SMS data moved after this grade was computed.

Why there is no grade. Every grade but Satisfactory needs at least a 60% posterior past its cut; Satisfactory is what is left when none passes. Here the 80% likely range (0.15×–1.70×) still runs from below the Excellent cut (0.60×) to above the Poor cut (1.57×), so the record can't separate a best-in-class fleet from a poor one and the page shows no grade and no FRED Score. The forecasts are unchanged: in backtests, records this thin crash at their forecast on average but scatter about 2.6× as widely around it as records that support a Satisfactory grade.

Confidence: Low · Z = 0.12 (posterior 0.33 × exposure corroboration)

Satisfactory — 0.81x its class rate (cuts: Excellent <0.60, Strong <0.76, Satisfactory <1.06, Marginal <1.57, Poor <2.11). Class rate 0.018 crashes per power-unit-year for a 21-unit for-hire fleet (pu20_49). Violations 1.18x (driver behaviour 1.39x, out-of-service 1.86x, all violations 2.61x; 6 inspections). Experience 0.69x: 0.0 decayed crashes against 0.7 expected over 36 months (credibility 0.33, a 1.42). 80% range 0.15–1.70x. Exposure: 4 of 21 filed power units seen roadside in 24 months, 0.14 inspections per filed unit-year — the class expectation assumes the filed fleet is real; confidence cut. Last change: older crashes rolling off.

Since the previous weekly run the risk relativity moved -2.0%, driven by older crashes rolling off the 36-month ramp.

Scoring flags MCS-150 mileage unreliable (mileage is not in the grade) Thin record (low credibility: little exposure behind the grade) Filed fleet not corroborated roadside — expected crashes assume the filed units are real; an Excellent or Strong grade is capped one band (interim)

What Drives This Score

1.00× = this motor carrier's class rate

FRED multiplies three factors: the class rate a fleet of this size, class and activity is expected to run, a violation relativity from its roadside record, and its own crash experience over 36 months weighted by how much exposure stands behind it. The grade is the band of the resulting relativity to class, then the screens.
