At a glance
Safety record
Grade shown here is ProHRHQ analysis based on public FMCSA data. It is not an official FMCSA safety rating. The authoritative federal record is on FMCSA SAFER/SMS.
Current peer-cohort snapshot based on public FMCSA BASIC measures. Peer cohort: 1,668 motor carriers operating 29 power units.
No acute or critical violation flags in the current review window.
The key signal in this record is Hours-of-Service at 319.2% of peer cohort average — roughly double the norm and the dominant reason for the A grade. Main caution: hours-of-service is the weakest area of the record and warrants direct confirmation with the carrier.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unsafe Driving | 12 | 16.97 | 70.7% | No |
| Hours-of-Service | 18 | 5.64 | 319.2% | No |
