Cargo

58.4
medium risk
Household Goods General Freight Building Materials Other: FURNITURE Grain/Feed/Hay Dry Bulk Paper Products Construction
High-Risk Cargo
General Freight, Household Goods, Other: FURNITURE

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.

Upside Withheld

Its risk relativity (0.74× similar fleets) would put it in Strong; this rule holds it at Satisfactory:

  • Strong withheld: the posterior is not confident enough that risk sits below 0.76× class

The downside is never capped.

Expected crash rate is probably lower than similar fleets (about an 80% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of 20–49 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans better, not yet proven. 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 1 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.28× the rate expected for its inspections, but out-of-service orders 0.35× and violations 0.69×. Together they move its crash estimate -8%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 7.7% vs 22.3% national; driver 0.0% vs 6.7%.
