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.

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).

Not enough record to grade yet.

16 inspections and 1 crash 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.

A record this thin can't pin that down: about a 1-in-4 chance it runs at Poor-level crash rates.

Ask
Loss runs for the last 3 years, and confirm the fleet is operating at its filed size (8 power units).
What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
About typical. 1 injury crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.5 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Worse than peers. Violations 1.79× and out-of-service orders 1.77× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +9%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

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.

  • Injury crashes
    1 crash with 3 people hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Lapse in liability filings
    No liability filing on FMCSA's file since Oct 21, 2025 (205 days through May 14, 2026) while the authority required one. Not in the grade.
    Ask: what covered the fleet during the gap.
  • Drivers put out of service
    2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 hours of service (Nov 2025 – Sep 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 8 of 26 violations (31%). Brake or light defects led to 3 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    18.8% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (3 of 16). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.77× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
Strengths
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Substance violations: 1
  • Unreliable reported mileage
    The motor carrier's self-reported annual mileage (MCS-150) looks implausible, so exposure- and mileage-based figures may be distorted.
  • Estimated mileage
    No usable mileage was reported, so exposure was estimated from similar motor carriers. Mileage-based metrics here are approximate.
