Satisfactory Provisional: the record behind this grade is thin (4 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.

Cargo

2.0
minimal risk
Other: SAND AND GRAVEL

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 2 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.

  • Lights and cargo securement
    Lights are 12 of 18 violations (67%). Light or cargo securement defects led to 2 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Data flags
  • Historical FMCSA safety rating
    FMCSA once rated this motor carrier Conditional or Unsatisfactory, but the rating is stale or superseded — the motor carrier still holds active operating authority (a current Unsatisfactory would have it revoked), so it does not reflect current standing. Shown for context, not as a current finding.
  • 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.

Checking FMCSA…

No MC, FF or MX docket on FMCSA's registration for this motor carrier, so there are no insurance filings to show. FMCSA collects filings only from registered for-hire authorities; other motor carriers keep proof of insurance (MCS-90) at their place of business.

FMCSA filings only, not a policy audit. Not part of the FRED grade. Wrong or out of date?
