Estimated from the commodity types reported to FMCSA, not from loss history or the true cargo mix.

Not enough record to grade yet.

25 inspections and 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

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.

A record this thin can't pin that down: about a 1-in-5 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 (20 power units).
What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
Higher so far, not yet proven. 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1 a year), including 1 with injuries; similar fleets have about 0.6 a year. Too few crashes to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 12% above typical. The grade counts 3 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Worse than peers. Out-of-service orders 1.74× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they barely move its crash estimate: 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 1 person hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Driver qualification
    2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 2 no valid CDL (Dec 2025 – Mar 2026).
    Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.
  • Lights and cargo securement
    Lights are 15 of 26 violations (58%). Light or cargo securement defects led to 10 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    63.6% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (7 of 11). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.74× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
Strengths
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
