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 (0.59× similar fleets) would put it in Excellent; this rule holds it at Strong:

  • Excellent withheld: the posterior is not confident enough that risk sits below 0.60× class

The downside is never capped.

Expected crash rate is probably lower than similar fleets (about a 90% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

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.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans better, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.5 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much better than peers. Violations 0.17×, out-of-service orders 0.27× and unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.55× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -26%.

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.
Strengths
  • No reportable crashes in 24 months.
  • Driver out-of-service rate 0.0% vs 6.7% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
