Cargo

62.4
medium risk
Household Goods Intermodal Containers Meat Refrigerated Food General Freight Beverages Other: FOODSTUFFS Paper Products
High-Risk Cargo
General Freight, Household Goods, Refrigerated Food, Meat

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.

Expected crash rate is probably higher than similar fleets (about a 60% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: for-hire 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 worse, not yet proven. 3 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1.5 a year), including 2 with injuries; similar fleets have about 0.6 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.54× the rate expected for its inspections, but violations 0.47× and out-of-service orders 0.51×. Together they move its crash estimate -6%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.
