Advisory Grade — Outside the Ranked Book

Fleets under 10 power units are graded against their size cohort (pu6_9) for reference, but sit outside the 10+ power-unit underwriting book the FRED rank covers.

Mileage Unreliable

MCS-150 annual mileage appears implausibly high for fleet size. 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).

High Utilization Fleet

This motor carrier reports 251,000 miles per power unit annually, which exceeds typical single-driver limits (~150,000–180,000 miles/year). This motor carrier is still rated, but the high utilization may indicate:

  • Team driving operations where trucks run nearly 24/7 with rotating drivers
  • Stale fleet count in MCS-150 (power units not updated while operations expanded)
  • Data entry anomaly in annual mileage reporting
  • Expedited/dedicated routes with unusually high truck utilization

Not enough record to grade yet.

7 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 6–9 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 1.8× as often as the median active fleet of 6–9 trucks.

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
Mixed. Violations 2.16× and out-of-service orders 1.73× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.59×. Together they move its crash estimate +5%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

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.

  • Lights and brakes
    Lights are 5 of 14 violations (36%). Light or brake defects led to 1 out-of-service order.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
Data flags
  • Substance violations: 2
  • 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.
