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.

74 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 70% chance), but not by enough to grade.

Similar fleets: interstate 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.

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 0.5 a year. The grade counts 2 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much better than peers. Violations 0.22×, out-of-service orders 0.34× and unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.37× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -27%. 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.

  • Driver qualification
    1 out-of-service violation against drivers: 1 no valid CDL (Sep 2026).
    Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 9 of 21 violations (43%). Brake or light defects led to 1 out-of-service order.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
Strengths
  • 1 crash in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 6.2% vs 22.3% national; driver 1.4% vs 6.7%.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Canada-domiciled motor carrier
    Domiciled in Canada — cross-border operating rules and inspection patterns differ from US-based motor carriers.
