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: 2,901 motor carriers operating 24 power units.
No acute or critical violation flags in the current review window.
The key signal in this record is Hours-of-Service at 211.4% 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 | 19 | 14.34 | 132.5% | No |
| Hours-of-Service | 12 | 5.68 | 211.4% | No |

What this carrier likely fits
This is a dry-bulk carrier that runs local lanes, primarily intrastate, at a small fleet scale, with general freight, grain, feed, hay, dry bulk commodities, and other listed classes on the FMCSA cargo classification list. Trailer-heavy fleet composition (53 trailers against 24 tractors) is consistent with drop-and-hook or dedicated lane operation.
