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.

    1 crash with 1 person hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.

  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • No active operating authority
    The motor carrier's interstate for-hire authority is revoked or inactive, so it isn't currently cleared to haul interstate for hire.
  • Dangerous driving: 1
