Held at Marginal by an FMCSA Rating

FMCSA currently rates this motor carrier Conditional (06-03-2026). While that rating stands, FRED grades the motor carrier no better than Marginal, even where its roadside and crash record alone would grade higher.

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.

Expected crash rate is about the same as similar fleets.

Similar fleets: for-hire 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.

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 0.3 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 4.75×, violations 2.43× and out-of-service orders 1.85× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +34%. 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.

  • FMCSA BASIC alert
    Over FMCSA's intervention threshold in drugs & alcohol.
    Ask: any FMCSA warning letters and the corrective-action plan.
  • Drivers put out of service
    9 out-of-service violations against drivers: 8 hours of service, 1 no valid CDL (Dec 2024 – Jul 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    42.9% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (6 of 14). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.85× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    34.8% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (8 of 23). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.85× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
  • Falsified logs
    3 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
Data flags

    FMCSA currently rates this motor carrier Conditional or Unsatisfactory — a recent formal finding of safety-management deficiencies. Treat as a serious underwriting concern.
  • Dangerous driving: 1
