Held at Marginal by an FMCSA Rating

FMCSA currently rates this motor carrier Conditional (01-19-2026). While that rating stands, FRED grades the motor carrier no better than Marginal, even where its roadside and crash record alone would grade higher.

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 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).

Too little record to tell how this motor carrier's crash rate compares with similar fleets.

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.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
About typical. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.2 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 3.11× and out-of-service orders 2.47× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +18%.

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.

  • FMCSA BASIC alerts
    Over FMCSA's intervention threshold in driver fitness, drugs & alcohol.
    Ask: any FMCSA warning letters and the corrective-action plan.
  • Driver qualification
    2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 no valid CDL (May 2025).
    Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 15 of 39 violations (38%). Brake or light defects led to 7 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
Data flags
  • Current adverse FMCSA safety rating
    FMCSA currently rates this motor carrier Conditional or Unsatisfactory — a recent formal finding of safety-management deficiencies. Treat as a serious underwriting concern.
  • 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.

Insurance filed with FMCSA

Today · live FMCSA check
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?
