Fresh Produce Grain/Feed/Hay Dry Bulk Farm Supplies

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

Not enough record to grade yet.

7 inspections and no crashes 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: for-hire 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 the record shows

Crash history

betterworse

Too little record to tell. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.4 a year. The grade counts 2 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.

Roadside inspections

betterworse

Worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 1.91× and out-of-service orders 1.40× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +12%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

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.

Driver qualification

1 out-of-service violation against drivers: 1 no valid CDL (Feb 2026).

Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.

Strengths

No reportable crashes in 24 months.

Checking FMCSA…

No MC, FF or MX docket on FMCSA's registration for this motor carrier, so there are no insurance filings to show. FMCSA collects filings only from registered for-hire authorities; other motor carriers keep proof of insurance (MCS-90) at their place of business.

FMCSA filings only, not a policy audit. Not part of the FRED grade. Wrong or out of date?

How the estimate is calculated

The model, its inputs, the window it scored and its confidence. For actuaries and anyone checking the work.

Forward 12-Month Risk Outlook

The FRED Score predicts this motor carrier's crash risk over the next 12 months — how often they're likely to crash and how severe those crashes tend to be — versus a typical fleet of its size (16 power units: 16 filed, 6 seen roadside in 24 months).

Crash Outlook vs Peer Fleet

Average peer fleet

0.4

Actual, per year in window

0.7

Projected, next 12 mo

0.5

0 0.5 1

We'd expect a typical fleet of 16 power units this active to have about 0.4 crashes a year. This motor carrier recorded 2 in its scoring window (Sep 1, 2023 → Aug 31, 2026, about 0.7 a year) — about 1.8× a typical fleet. Factoring in its inspection and violation record inside that window and the credibility of its own experience, the model projects about 0.5 over the next 12 — about 1.3× the typical fleet. When this motor carrier does crash, those crashes tend to be substantially more severe than average — roughly 3.4× the injury/fatal weight of a typical crash.

Fatal-crash risk: about 1% chance in the next 12 months

Modeled fatal-crash rate is roughly 1.3× that of similar fleets (likelihood of at least one fatal crash, from its exposure and safety profile).

Track Record Used

Crashes Sep 1, 2023 → Aug 31, 2026 · inspections Oct 1, 2024 → Sep 30, 2026 · data as of Oct 29, 2026

Inside that window: 7 inspections and 2 crashes. The FMCSA record tables now hold 7 inspections and 0 crashes in that window — the SMS data moved after this grade was computed.

Why there is no grade. Every grade but Satisfactory needs at least a 60% posterior past its cut; Satisfactory is what is left when none passes. Here the 80% likely range (0.54×–2.29×) still runs from below the Excellent cut (0.60×) to above the Poor cut (1.57×), so the record can't separate a best-in-class fleet from a poor one and the page shows no grade and no FRED Score. The forecasts are unchanged: in backtests, records this thin crash at their forecast on average but scatter about 2.6× as widely around it as records that support a Satisfactory grade.

Confidence: Low · Z = 0.16 (posterior 0.21 × exposure corroboration)

Satisfactory — 1.33x its class rate (cuts: Excellent <0.60, Strong <0.76, Satisfactory <1.06, Marginal <1.57, Poor <2.11). Class rate 0.023 crashes per power-unit-year for a 16-unit for-hire fleet (pu10_19). Violations 1.12x (driver behaviour 1.91x, out-of-service 1.40x, all violations 1.19x; 7 inspections). Experience 1.19x: 1.2 decayed crashes against 0.6 expected over 36 months (credibility 0.21, a 2.41). 80% range 0.54–2.29x. Last change: no change since the last run.

No change since the previous weekly run.

Scoring flags Thin record (low credibility: little exposure behind the grade) (informational — no grade effect)

What Drives This Score

1.00× = this motor carrier's class rate

FRED multiplies three factors: the class rate a fleet of this size, class and activity is expected to run, a violation relativity from its roadside record, and its own crash experience over 36 months weighted by how much exposure stands behind it. The grade is the band of the resulting relativity to class, then the screens.

Each sub-relativity is shrunk toward its cohort rate when the record is thin (Bühlmann credibility), so a short record reads close to 1.00×.
