General Freight, Refrigerated Food, Meat

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 higher 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 worse, not yet proven. 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1 a year), including 1 with injuries; similar fleets have about 0.5 a year. The grade counts 3 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 2.77× and violations 1.59× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +17%. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.

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
    1 crash with 1 person hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Drivers put out of service
    10 out-of-service violations against drivers: 10 hours of service (May 2025 – May 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 27 of 106 violations (25%). Brake or light defects led to 8 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Falsified logs
    4 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    11.3% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (8 of 71), but across all its inspections out-of-service orders are 1.13× what's expected for where and how it's inspected, the measure the grade uses.
Strengths
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 1
