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).

Expected crash rate is about half that of similar fleets.

Similar fleets: for-hire fleets of 50–99 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's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Lower so far, not yet proven. 2 crashes on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 1 a year), including 1 with injuries; similar fleets have about 1.9 a year. Too short a record to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about typical.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Much better than peers. Out-of-service orders 0.07×, violations 0.07× and unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.18× the rate expected for its inspections. Together they move its crash estimate -45%. 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.

  • Injury crashes
    1 crash with 1 person hurt in 24 months.
    Ask: claim status and driver history for these crashes.
  • Hazmat violations
    1 hazmat violation.
Strengths
  • Vehicle out-of-service rate 1.1% vs 22.3% national; driver 0.0% vs 6.7%.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
  • 95% of inspections found no violations.
Data flags
  • Dangerous driving: 1
  • 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.
