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.

Expected crash rate is about the same as similar fleets.

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.

Worth a closer look

From the FMCSA record. The grade already counts the safety items; insurance filings and links to other motor carriers are not in it.

  • Drivers put out of service
    10 out-of-service violations against drivers: 9 hours of service, 1 other qualification (Jan 2025 – Mar 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Brakes and tires
    Brakes are 21 of 137 violations (15%). Brake or tire defects led to 20 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Falsified logs
    21 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.
Strengths
  • 2 crashes in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • Driver out-of-service rate 2.6% vs 6.7% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 6
  • Excessive speeding: 13
  • Unusual inspection rate
    Inspections per truck fall outside the normal range (1st–99th percentile), which can point to a mis-reported fleet size or data issues.
