Cargo

High-Risk Cargo
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.

Expected crash rate is probably lower than similar fleets (about a 70% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: interstate 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.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Lower so far, not yet proven. 1 fatal crash (1 death) on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 1 a year. Too short a record to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 13% below typical.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.44× the rate expected for its inspections, but violations 0.60× and out-of-service orders 0.80×. Together they barely move its crash estimate: 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.

  • Fatal crash
    1 crash with 1 fatality in 24 months (most recent Apr 20, 2026).
    Ask: the accident register and loss runs for these crashes.
  • Drivers put out of service
    4 out-of-service violations against drivers: 3 hours of service, 1 no valid CDL (Mar 2025 – Sep 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Falsified logs
    2 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    12.5% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (4 of 32), but across all its inspections out-of-service orders are 0.80× what's expected for where and how it's inspected, the measure the grade uses.
Strengths
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 0.0% vs 22.3% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
  • 75% of inspections found no violations.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 2

    Why this link: FMCSA crash report PA603922400X (PSP - CLEARFIELD) lists WINDY EXPEDITE INC’s truck in this crash. This third-party news report covers a crash with the same date, place and number of deaths, matched automatically. It may not name WINDY EXPEDITE INC and doesn't establish fault. Wrong article?

About “In the news”: these links go to third-party news reports that FRED Score matched automatically to FMCSA crash records — same date and place, with a truck or bus involved, and the same number of deaths or, for a crash that released hazardous materials, the release — and checked a second time before showing. A link doesn't mean this motor carrier caused the crash: FMCSA crash reports don't assign fault, and news coverage can be incomplete or wrong. FRED Score doesn't verify or endorse what the articles say.

No other reportable crashes on the FMCSA record.
