ProHRHQ analysis · peer-cohort grading on FMCSA SMS data

Safety record

Strong

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: 1,001 motor carriers operating 45 power units.

FMCSA has flagged acute or critical violations in the current review window. See the per-BASIC table for which areas.

The strongest signal is Hours-of-Service at 0.0% of peer cohort average — well under norm. Combined with a clean acute-flag picture, that supports the A grade. Main caution: acute or critical violation flag in driver fitness.

BASIC	Carrier (3yr, weighted)	Cohort avg	vs. cohort	Acute
Unsafe Driving	45	31.25	144.0%	No
Hours-of-Service	0	13.06	0.0%	No

Controlled Substances/Alcohol	0	0.00	—	No
Vehicle Maintenance	53	78.75	67.3%	No
