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.

Mileage Unreliable

MCS-150 annual mileage appears too low for fleet size given observed activity. The per-100k-mile rate benchmarks on this page are excluded; the FRED grade does not use mileage (crash exposure is power-unit-years, violation exposure is inspection counts).

Not enough record to grade yet.

44 inspections and 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

Similar fleets: for-hire fleets of 20–49 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-8 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
Lower so far, not yet proven. 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.8 a year. Too short a record to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 11% below typical.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Worse than peers. Violations 1.46×, unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.42× and out-of-service orders 1.38× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +10%. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.

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.

  • Drivers put out of service
    14 out-of-service violations against drivers: 8 no valid CDL, 4 English proficiency, 1 hours of service (Jul 2025 – Sep 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    27.3% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (12 of 44). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.38× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
  • Unsafe driving
    Cited 1 for speeding 15+ mph over or in a work zone and 2 for phone use.
    Ask: telematics, speed governance and phone policy.
Strengths
  • 1 crash in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 8.3% vs 22.3% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 5
  • Substance violations: 1
  • Unreliable reported mileage
    The motor carrier's self-reported annual mileage (MCS-150) looks implausible, so exposure- and mileage-based figures may be distorted.
  • Estimated mileage
    No usable mileage was reported, so exposure was estimated from similar motor carriers. Mileage-based metrics here are approximate.
