Estimated from the commodity types reported to FMCSA, not from loss history or the true cargo mix.
Its risk relativity (0.58× 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.
Fleets under 10 power units are graded against their size cohort (pu2_5) for reference, but sit outside the 10+ power-unit underwriting book the FRED rank covers.
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).
Runs within Kentucky only. Intrastate fleets in Kentucky are inspected about 1 a year for every 11 trucks; interstate fleets, about 1 a year for every 2 trucks. So this record rests mainly on crash reports, which states file for intrastate trucks too, and few inspections are ordinary here.
Too little record to tell how this motor carrier's crash rate compares with similar fleets.
Similar fleets: intrastate fleets of 2–5 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.
- No reportable crashes in 24 months.
- Vehicle out-of-service rate 0.0% vs 30.6% for intrastate motor carriers; driver 0.0% vs 8.5%.
- No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
-
Unreliable reported mileageThe motor carrier's self-reported annual mileage (MCS-150) looks implausible, so exposure- and mileage-based figures may be distorted.
-
Unusual inspection rateInspections per truck fall outside the normal range (1st–99th percentile), which can point to a mis-reported fleet size or data issues.
Track record
Intrastate fleets of 1 truck in Kentucky are rarely inspected: under 1 inspection would be typical in 24 months for a fleet this size; 92% of them had none.

Insurance filed with 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?

How this grade is calculated
The model, its inputs, the window it scored and its confidence. For actuaries and anyone checking the work.
Forward 12-Month Risk Outlook
The FRED Score predicts this motor carrier's crash risk over the next 12 months — how often they're likely to crash and how severe those crashes tend to be — versus a typical fleet of its size (4 power units: 1 filed, 4 seen roadside in 24 months).
We'd expect a typical fleet of 4 power units this active to have about 0.1 crashes a year (sized from the 4 units seen roadside; 1 filed). This motor carrier recorded 0 in its scoring window (Sep 1, 2023 → Aug 31, 2026, about 0.0 a year) — fewer than a typical fleet. Factoring in its inspection and violation record inside that window and the credibility of its own experience, the model projects about 0.1 over the next 12 — below a typical fleet.
- 2 inspections with no out-of-service result
FRED multiplies three factors: the class rate a fleet of this size, class and activity is expected to run, a violation relativity from its roadside record, and its own crash experience over 36 months weighted by how much exposure stands behind it. The grade is the band of the resulting relativity to class, then the screens.
- Excellent withheld: too little expected exposure to prove it (under 0.3 expected crashes in 36 months)
