Advisory Grade — Outside the Ranked Book

Fleets under 10 power units are graded against their size cohort (pu6_9) for reference, but sit outside the 10+ power-unit underwriting book the FRED rank covers.

Not enough record to grade yet.

2 inspections and no crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

Similar fleets: intrastate fleets of 6–9 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

A record this thin can't pin that down: about a 1-in-7 chance it runs at Poor-level crash rates.

Ask

Loss runs for the last 3 years, and confirm the fleet is operating at its filed size (7 power units).

What the record shows

Crash history

betterworse

Too little record to tell. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.1 a year.

Roadside inspections

betterworse

Better than peers. Violations 0.57× and out-of-service orders 0.78× 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 estimate already counts the safety items; insurance filings and links to other motor carriers are context only.

Little roadside history

Only 2 inspections in 24 months for 7 power units, where intrastate fleets of 6–9 trucks in California average about 6; the record says little either way.

Ask: confirm the fleet is operating at the filed size (the MCS-150 was last updated Apr 2026).

Data flags

Limited inspection history
Fewer than 5 roadside inspections on record, so there isn't enough data to score this motor carrier with high confidence — the score leans more on peers.

Checking FMCSA…

No MC, FF or MX docket on FMCSA's registration for this motor carrier, so there are no insurance filings to show. FMCSA collects filings only from registered for-hire authorities; other motor carriers keep proof of insurance (MCS-90) at their place of business.

FMCSA filings only, not a policy audit. Not part of the FRED grade. Wrong or out of date?

How the estimate is calculated

The model, its inputs, the window it scored and its confidence. For actuaries and anyone checking the work.

Forward 12-Month Risk Outlook

The FRED Score predicts this motor carrier's crash risk over the next 12 months — how often they're likely to crash and how severe those crashes tend to be — versus a typical fleet of its size (7 power units: 7 filed, 1 seen roadside in 24 months).

Crash Outlook vs Peer Fleet

Average peer fleet

0.1

Actual, per year in window

0.0

Projected, next 12 mo

0.1

0 0.25 0.5

We'd expect a typical fleet of 7 power units this active to have about 0.1 crashes a year. This motor carrier recorded 0 in its scoring window (Sep 1, 2023 → Aug 31, 2026, about 0.0 a year) — fewer than a typical fleet. Factoring in its inspection and violation record inside that window and the credibility of its own experience, the model projects about 0.1 over the next 12 — below a typical fleet.

Fatal-crash risk: less than a 1% chance in the next 12 months

Modeled fatal-crash rate is about typical for similar fleets (likelihood of at least one fatal crash, from its exposure and safety profile).

Track Record Used

Crashes Sep 1, 2023 → Aug 31, 2026 · inspections Oct 1, 2024 → Sep 30, 2026 · data as of Oct 29, 2026

Inside that window: 2 inspections and 0 crashes.

Why there is no grade. Every grade but Satisfactory needs at least a 60% posterior past its cut; Satisfactory is what is left when none passes. Here the 80% likely range (0.09×–1.80×) still runs from below the Excellent cut (0.60×) to above the Poor cut (1.57×), so the record can't separate a best-in-class fleet from a poor one and the page shows no grade and no FRED Score. The forecasts are unchanged: in backtests, records this thin crash at their forecast on average but scatter about 2.6× as widely around it as records that support a Satisfactory grade.

Confidence: Prior-only · Z = 0.04 (posterior 0.13 × exposure corroboration) Provisional

Satisfactory — 0.80x its class rate (cuts: Excellent <0.60, Strong <0.76, Satisfactory <1.06, Marginal <1.57, Poor <2.11). Class rate 0.017 crashes per power-unit-year for a 7-unit for-hire fleet (pu6_9). Violations 0.92x (driver behaviour 0.83x, out-of-service 0.78x, all violations 0.57x; 2 inspections). Experience 0.87x: 0.0 decayed crashes against 0.2 expected over 36 months (credibility 0.13, a 1.08). 80% range 0.09–1.80x. Last change: no change since the last run.

No change since the previous weekly run.

Scoring flags Intrastate operation — rated against intrastate fleets (a class crash rate about 23% lower); roadside inspections are rarer, so the record rests more on crashes Thin record (low credibility: little exposure behind the grade)

What Drives This Score

1.00× = this motor carrier's class rate

FRED multiplies three factors: the class rate a fleet of this size, class and activity is expected to run, a violation relativity from its roadside record, and its own crash experience over 36 months weighted by how much exposure stands behind it. The grade is the band of the resulting relativity to class, then the screens.
