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 half that of similar fleets.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of 200–499 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 0.5× as often as the median active fleet of 200–499 trucks.

Roadside inspections
betterworse
Better than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.45×, violations 0.45× and out-of-service orders 0.61× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -17%.

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.

  • Injury crashes
    3 crashes with 4 people hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Lapse in liability filings
    No liability filing on FMCSA's file since May 14, 2023 (1096 days through May 14, 2026) while the authority required one. Not in the grade.
    Ask: what covered the fleet during the gap.
  • Drivers put out of service
    5 out-of-service violations against drivers: 3 no valid CDL, 2 hours of service (Nov 2024 – Nov 2025).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Lights and tires
    Lights are 20 of 80 violations (25%). Light or tire defects led to 17 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Strengths
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 14.2% vs 22.3% national; driver 1.9% vs 6.7%.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 4
  • High speeding: 5
