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 a 70% 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.

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 0.6 a year. The grade counts 2 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Out-of-service orders 2.09× and violations 1.56× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.51×. Together they barely move its crash estimate: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

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.

  • Lapse in liability filings
    290 days without a liability filing on FMCSA's record (Aug 16, 2023 – Jun 1, 2024) while the authority required one. A filing received later can be back-dated and close a lapse. Not in the grade.
    Ask: what covered the fleet during the gap.
  • Drivers put out of service
    5 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 no valid CDL, 1 hours of service, 1 hazmat (Dec 2024 – Aug 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Lights and brakes
    Lights are 15 of 56 violations (27%). Light or brake defects led to 7 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    52.6% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (10 of 19). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 2.09× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    15.8% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (3 of 19). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 2.09× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
  • Hazmat violations
    3 hazmat violations, 2 out of service.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
