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.

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

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.

A record this thin can't pin that down: about a 1-in-3 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 (10 power units).
What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
Too little record to tell. 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.3 a year. The grade counts 2 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
About typical. Out-of-service orders, violations and unsafe-driving or hours-of-service violations are all close to the rate expected for its inspections.

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.

  • Lapse in liability filings
    128 days without a liability filing on FMCSA's record (May 14, 2023 – Sep 19, 2023) while the authority required one. A filing received later can be back-dated and close a lapse. Not in the grade.
    Ask: what covered the fleet during the gap.
  • Drivers put out of service
    2 out-of-service violations against drivers: 1 hours of service, 1 no valid CDL (Oct 2024 – Apr 2026).
    Ask: driver supervision and dispatch practices.
Strengths
  • 1 crash in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 1
