Not enough record to grade yet.

55 inspections and 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

Similar fleets: interstate 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 1.7× as often as the median active fleet of 10–19 trucks.

What the record shows

Crash history

betterworse

About typical. 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1 a year), including 1 fatal (1 death); similar fleets have about 0.9 a year. The grade counts 3 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.

Roadside inspections

betterworse

Worse than peers. Out-of-service orders 1.33× and unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.31× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +6%. 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.

Fatal crash

1 crash with 1 fatality in 24 months (most recent Mar 7, 2026).

Ask: the accident register and loss runs for these crashes.
Lapse in liability filings

247 days without a liability filing on FMCSA's record (May 22, 2025 – Jan 24, 2026) 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: 2 hours of service, 1 no valid CDL (Mar 2026 – Aug 2026).

Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
Brakes and lights

Brakes are 35 of 111 violations (32%). Brake or light defects led to 13 out-of-service orders.

Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Falsified logs

3 false-log violations in 24 months.

Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.

Strengths

No FMCSA BASIC alerts.

About “In the news”: these links go to third-party news reports that FRED Score matched automatically to FMCSA crash records — same date and place, with a truck or bus involved, and the same number of deaths or, for a crash that released hazardous materials, the release — and checked a second time before showing. A link doesn't mean this motor carrier caused the crash: FMCSA crash reports don't assign fault, and news coverage can be incomplete or wrong. FRED Score doesn't verify or endorse what the articles say.

What the terms mean

Liability filing (BIPD):: The insurer's certificate (form BMC-91 or 91X) that the motor carrier carries bodily-injury and property-damage liability at or above FMCSA's minimum. A BMC-82 is the same promise made by a surety bond.
FMCSA minimum:: $750,000 for general freight in vehicles of 10,001 lb or more; $300,000 under 10,001 lb; $1,000,000 for oil and some hazardous materials; $5,000,000 for bulk hazardous materials (49 CFR 387.9).
Primary / excess:: An excess filing sits on top of a primary one; together they make the total filed limit.
Replaced:: A new filing took over from this one. Replaced the same day is an ordinary change of insurer or renewal.
Cancellation notice:: Form BMC-35 (insurance) or BMC-36 (bond): the insurer tells FMCSA the filing ends in 30 days. The insurer files it whether the insurer or the motor carrier ended the policy; FMCSA does not publish the reason.
Cancellation processed by FMCSA:: FMCSA itself ended the filing, for example when the authority was revoked.
Lapse:: Time with no liability filing on FMCSA's record while the authority required one. A filing received later can be back-dated, which closes a lapse after the fact.
Suspended for insurance:: FMCSA suspended the operating authority because no filing meeting the minimum was on file. FMCSA's records state this reason only since May 14, 2026; before then they show a revocation notice without a cause.
FMCSA notice resolved in time:: Before May 14, 2026, FMCSA served a revocation notice when a required filing lapsed and dropped it when the filing was restored. The notice does not say which filing lapsed.
Suspension notice:: Since May 14, 2026, FMCSA serves a notice that the authority will be suspended on a date unless the missing filing is restored. The notice does not say which filing.
Cargo filing:: Form BMC-34. FMCSA has required it only of household-goods motor carriers and forwarders since 2011, so most motor carriers' cargo policies are not on FMCSA's record.
Broker bond / trust fund:: Form BMC-84 (surety bond) or BMC-85 (trust fund): the $75,000 security a broker or freight forwarder must keep on file.
Self-insurance authority:: FMCSA lets a few large motor carriers carry their own liability; it appears as a filing by "Self-Insured".
Risk retention group:: An insurer owned by its policyholders (often trucking groups). It is not covered by state insurance guaranty funds.
FMCSA record through:: The date of the FMCSA file this section was built from. Dockets FMCSA's new system has not yet published are shown from the legacy record, frozen on May 14, 2026.

FMCSA's record of the insurance filed for this motor carrier's operating authority (forms BMC-91/91X liability, BMC-34 cargo, BMC-84/85 broker bond or trust), not the motor carrier's full insurance program. Only for-hire motor carriers with operating authority file with FMCSA; private and intrastate-only motor carriers keep proof of insurance at their place of business, so no filing does not mean no insurance. A filed limit is the amount the insurer certified to FMCSA, which can be below the policy's full limits; cargo and bond filings are shown as on file or not because FMCSA records the federal minimum rather than the policy amount. FMCSA's new registration system (May 14, 2026) publishes a partial set of dockets; a docket not yet in it is shown from the legacy record, frozen on that date, and the live check above is today's reading. Not part of the FRED grade. Wrong or out of date?

How the estimate is calculated

The model, its inputs, the window it scored and its confidence. For actuaries and anyone checking the work.

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 (15 power units: 14 filed, 15 seen roadside in 24 months).

crashes per year · same scale

Average peer fleet

Actual, per year in window

1.0

Projected, next 12 mo

1.0

0 0.75 1.5

We'd expect a typical fleet of 15 power units this active to have about 0.9 crashes a year (sized from the 15 units seen roadside; 14 filed). This motor carrier recorded 3 in its scoring window (Oct 1, 2023 → Sep 30, 2026, about 1.0 a year). Factoring in its inspection and violation record inside that window and the credibility of its own experience, the model projects about 1.0 over the next 12. When this motor carrier does crash, those crashes tend to be substantially more severe than average — roughly 3.4× the injury/fatal weight of a typical crash.

Fatal-crash risk: about 3% 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).

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: 52 inspections and 3 crashes. The FMCSA record tables now hold 49 inspections and 2 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 (0.54×–1.79×) 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 = 0.30

Satisfactory — 1.11x its class rate (cuts: Excellent <0.60, Strong <0.76, Satisfactory <1.06, Marginal <1.57, Poor <2.11). Class rate 0.059 crashes per power-unit-year for a 15-unit for-hire fleet (pu10_19). Violations 1.06x (driver behaviour 1.31x, out-of-service 1.33x, all violations 1.10x; 52 inspections). Experience 1.05x: 1.7 decayed crashes against 1.5 expected over 36 months (credibility 0.30, a 3.47). 80% range 0.54–1.79x. Fleet sized at 15 units from roadside VINs (14 filed). Last change: the violation record.

Since the previous weekly run the risk relativity moved -8.3%, driven by the violation record.

Scoring flags Thin record (low credibility: little exposure behind the grade)

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.
