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.

Not enough record to grade yet.

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

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of 10–19 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

Per truck, fleets like this one are expected to crash about 1.5× as often as the median active fleet of 10–19 trucks.

What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
Lower so far, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.6 a year. Too short a record to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 4% below typical. The grade counts 1 crash in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 5.05× and violations 2.12× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +29%. 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
    4 out-of-service violations against drivers: 4 hours of service (Mar 2026 – Sep 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Falsified logs
    7 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    18.2% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (4 of 22), but across all its inspections out-of-service orders are 1.17× what's expected for where and how it's inspected, the measure the grade uses.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 10.0% vs 22.3% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 1
