Metal: Sheets/Coils/Rolls Machinery/Large Objects General Freight Building Materials Paper Products Construction
High-Risk Cargo
Machinery Large, General Freight

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 probably lower than similar fleets (about an 80% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

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 1.6× as often as the median active fleet of 10–19 trucks.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans better, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.7 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Better than peers. Violations 0.52×, out-of-service orders 0.54× and unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.66× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -14%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.
