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.

Not enough record to grade yet.

33 inspections and 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one. It leans better than similar fleets (about a 60% chance), but not by enough to grade.

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.

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
Leans better, not yet proven. 1 injury crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.8 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 3.25× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +14%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.

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.
  • Brakes and tires
    Brakes are 9 of 47 violations (19%). Brake or tire defects led to 7 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Unsafe driving
    Cited 3 for speeding 15+ mph over or in a work zone and 1 for phone use.
    Ask: telematics, speed governance and phone policy.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    41.2% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (7 of 17), but across all its inspections out-of-service orders are 1.07× what's expected for where and how it's inspected, the measure the grade uses.
Strengths
  • Driver out-of-service rate 0.0% vs 6.7% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 1
