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.

Upside Withheld

Its risk relativity (0.64× similar fleets) would put it in Strong; this rule holds it at Satisfactory:

  • Held one band lower (interim): the filed fleet isn't corroborated roadside — see Exposure Unverified below

The downside is never capped.

Exposure Unverified

The expected crashes behind this grade assume the filed fleet of 60 power units is real, but the roadside record corroborates little of it — 7 units seen in 24 months, 0.15 inspections per filed unit-year. The grade's relativity to class is unchanged; its confidence tier is cut to reflect the unverified exposure, and until the fleet is confirmed an Excellent grade shows as Strong and a Strong as Satisfactory. Verify the fleet size before relying on the crash expectation.

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: for-hire fleets of 50–99 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. 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 1.3 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Better than peers. Out-of-service orders 0.57× and violations 0.64× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -8%: 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
    275 days without a liability filing on FMCSA's record (Dec 14, 2024 – Sep 15, 2025) 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.
  • Lights and brakes
    Lights are 5 of 14 violations (36%). Light or brake defects led to 1 out-of-service order.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Filed fleet not seen on the road
    Only 7 of the 60 filed power units were seen at a roadside inspection in 24 months (18 inspections in all). The crash expectation behind the grade assumes all 60 are running. Its grade is held one band lower until the fleet is confirmed.
    Ask: how many trucks are actually operating, with the vehicle schedule.
Strengths
  • 1 crash in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 15.4% vs 22.3% national; driver 0.0% vs 6.7%.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
