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).

Not enough record to grade yet.

15 inspections and 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months fit anything from an Excellent fleet to a Poor one.

Similar fleets: interstate 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.

Per truck, fleets like this one are expected to crash about 0.7× as often as the median active fleet of 10–19 trucks.

A record this thin can't pin that down: about a 1-in-4 chance it runs at Poor-level crash rates.

What the record shows
Crash history
betterworse
Too little record to tell. 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1 a year), including 1 fatal (1 death) and 1 with injuries; similar fleets have about 0.4 a year.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Out-of-service orders 2.44× and violations 1.72× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.73×. Together they move its crash estimate +8%: 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.

  • Fatal crash
    1 crash with 1 fatality in 24 months (most recent Mar 14, 2025).
    Ask: the accident register and loss runs for these crashes.
  • Injury crashes
    1 crash with 1 person hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Brakes and lights
    Brakes are 16 of 50 violations (32%). Brake or light defects led to 12 out-of-service orders.
    Ask: the preventive-maintenance schedule and shop records.
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate
    84.6% of vehicle inspections end out of service vs 22.3% nationally (11 of 13). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 2.44× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
Strengths
  • Driver out-of-service rate 0.0% vs 6.7% national.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
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.
