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 about 2 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

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.

  • Brakes and tires
    Brakes are 9 of 21 violations (43%). Brake or tire defects led to 6 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • New since the grade was set
    2 out-of-service inspections after Jul 31, 2026. Not in the grade yet.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
