Satisfactory Provisional: the record behind this grade is thin (0 inspections and 0 crashes in the scoring window), so the grade leans mostly on what's typical for similar fleets and can move as more inspections and time on the road build up.

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.

Too little record to tell how this motor carrier's crash rate compares with similar fleets.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of about 1 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

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.

  • Nothing on the FMCSA record stands out.
Data flags
  • Limited inspection history
    Fewer than 5 roadside inspections on record, so there isn't enough data to score this motor carrier with high confidence — the score leans more on peers.
