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.

Not enough record to grade yet.

5 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.

A record this thin can't pin that down: about a 1-in-7 chance it runs at Poor-level crash rates.

Loss runs for the last 3 years, and confirm the fleet is operating at its filed size (6 power units).
What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
About typical. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.2 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Violations 1.84× and out-of-service orders 1.83× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.67×. 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.

  • Driver qualification
    2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 no valid CDL (Apr 2025 – Sep 2025).
    Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 5 of 13 violations (38%). Brake or light defects led to 4 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
