12.2
minimal risk
Other: ROCK Dry Bulk

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

Expected crash rate is probably lower than similar fleets (about an 80% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

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.

Per truck, fleets like this one are expected to crash about 1.6× as often as the median active fleet of 20–49 trucks.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Leans better, not yet proven. 4 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 2 a year), including 3 fatal (3 deaths) and 1 with injuries; similar fleets have about 2.3 a year. The grade counts 6 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 2.66× the rate expected for its inspections, but out-of-service orders 0.57×. Together they move its crash estimate +8%: roadside results weigh far less than crash history. It's inspected more often than most fleets its size.
