Where these numbers come from
Data as of 2026-07-09 · Full methodology →
Recorded by FMCSA: identity, fleet size, inspections, crashes, insurance filings, read directly from FMCSA public records.
Recreated from FMCSA's published methodology: ISS score and BASIC percentiles, rebuilt from public records using the published SMS v3.20 / ISS methodology. Our recreation is an approximation: FMCSA's internal systems are the canonical source, and the official score may differ.
Projected from industry data: dollar estimates built from ATRI insurance rates and published underwriting bands. Directional, not a quote.
Every number on this page has a source; the (i) icons explain each one. For informational use only: this report is a single-carrier snapshot, not FMCSA's official record, a safety rating, or legal advice.
