Advisory Grade — Outside the Ranked Book

Fleets under 10 power units are graded against their size cohort (pu6_9) for reference, but sit outside the 10+ power-unit underwriting book the FRED rank covers.

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

Similar fleets: for-hire fleets of 6–9 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

Per truck, fleets like this one are expected to crash about 2.2× as often as the median active fleet of 6–9 trucks.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans better, not yet proven. 0 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months; similar fleets have about 0.6 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much worse than peers. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 2.32× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate +13%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.

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.

    4 false-log violations in 24 months.
    Ask: how hours are audited against ELD and fuel records.

  • Driver out-of-service rate 4.3% vs 6.7% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
