Cargo

50.0
medium risk

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

Not Graded

Not graded: passenger operation. The FRED Score is a model for motor carriers of property; a passenger model is a separate study.

Stale MCS-150 Filing

This motor carrier has not updated its MCS-150 in over 3 years. Reported mileage and fleet size may be outdated.

Worth a closer look

From the FMCSA record.

  • Injury crashes
    6 crashes with 13 people hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Little roadside history
    Only 0 inspections in 24 months for 315 power units, where intrastate fleets of 200–499 trucks in Massachusetts average about 16; the record says little either way.
    Ask: confirm the fleet is operating at the filed size (the MCS-150 was last updated Dec 2013).
Data flags
  • Limited inspection history
    Fewer than 5 roadside inspections on record, so there isn't enough data to score this motor carrier with high confidence — the score leans more on peers.
