Marginal Provisional: the record is still thin. A fleet of 4 power units would expect only about 0.2 crashes over the 36-month grade window, and it had 2 inspections and 1 crash in that time, so the grade leans mostly on what's typical for similar fleets and can move as more inspections and time on the road build up.
FRED Score 34.2 / 100 The FRED Score (0–100, higher is better) compares this motor carrier's expected crash rate with that of similar fleets. It is an analytical opinion, not an FMCSA safety rating.
