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.

Upside Withheld

Its risk relativity (0.57× similar fleets) would put it in Excellent; this rule holds it at Strong:

  • Excellent withheld: too little expected exposure to prove it (under 0.3 expected crashes in 36 months)

The downside is never capped.

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).

Expected crash rate is probably lower than similar fleets (about an 80% 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.

Per truck, fleets like this one are expected to crash under a tenth as often as the median active fleet of 20–49 trucks.

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 0.1 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Out-of-service orders 1.38× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.16×. Together they move its crash estimate -16%. 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.

  • Drivers put out of service
    6 out-of-service violations against drivers: 4 no valid CDL, 2 hours of service (Jun 2025 – Jun 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Lights and brakes
    Lights are 71 of 313 violations (23%). Light or brake defects led to 12 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    35.9% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (46 of 128). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.38× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
  • Hazmat violations
    10 hazmat violations, 7 out of service.
  • Cross-border operation
    123 inspections on Mexico-plated units; 74% of all inspections were in Texas.
    Ask: operating radius and Mexico lanes.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
  • Driver out-of-service rate 4.7% vs 6.7% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Unreliable reported mileage
    The motor carrier's self-reported annual mileage (MCS-150) looks implausible, so exposure- and mileage-based figures may be distorted.
  • Unusual inspection rate
    Inspections per truck fall outside the normal range (1st–99th percentile), which can point to a mis-reported fleet size or data issues.
  • Mexico-domiciled motor carrier
    Domiciled in Mexico — cross-border operating rules and inspection patterns differ from US-based motor carriers.
