Intrastate Only
Marginal Provisional: the record is still thin. A fleet of 1 power unit would expect only about 0.1 crashes over the 36-month scoring window, and it had 2 inspections and 1 crash in that time, so the grade leans mostly on what's typical for similar fleets and can move as more inspections and time on the road build up.

Advisory Grade — Outside the Ranked Book

Fleets under 10 power units are graded against their size cohort (pu1) for reference, but sit outside the 10+ power-unit underwriting book the FRED rank covers.

Mileage Unreliable

MCS-150 annual mileage appears too low for fleet size given observed activity. The per-100k-mile rate benchmarks on this page are excluded; the FRED grade does not use mileage (crash exposure is power-unit-years, violation exposure is inspection counts).

Intrastate Only

Intrastate-only carrier — not required to file MCS-150. May be inspected less frequently than interstate carriers. Safety rates may have lower statistical confidence.

Expected crash rate is probably higher than similar fleets (about a 70% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: private fleets of 1 truck with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

▲ Similar fleets 1.0×
Leaning Critical. Its estimate (2.22× similar fleets) is in the Critical range, but the record isn't strong enough to be 60% sure it is above the Critical line (2.11×), so the grade stays Marginal.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans worse, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have under 0.1 a year. The grade counts 1 crash in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Violations 2.40× and out-of-service orders 1.47× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +8%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

Worth a closer look

From the FMCSA record. The grade already counts the safety items; insurance filings and links to other motor carriers are not in it.

  • Driver qualification
    1 out-of-service violation against drivers: 1 no valid CDL (Jun 2026).
    Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.
Data flags
  • Unreliable reported mileage
    The motor carrier's self-reported annual mileage (MCS-150) looks implausible, so exposure- and mileage-based figures may be distorted.
  • Estimated mileage
    No usable mileage was reported, so exposure was estimated from similar motor carriers. Mileage-based metrics here are approximate.
  • 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.
