BASIC AMERICAN INC Safety Record

Roadside out-of-service rates versus the national benchmark, inspection and crash trends, decoded violation themes, and ELD / hours-of-service integrity — the full safety picture behind the verdict.

Every inspection in the window pooled — 3 vehicle and 6 driver inspections over 24 months.

Out-of-service trend· any OOS · all inspection levels · 6-month trailing

14.3% · latest 6-mo window▲ Rising

Share of all roadside inspections — vehicle checks and driver-only checks alike — that ended in any out-of-service order, vehicle or driver. Trending up 14.3 pts across the window. It is a different measure from the vehicle-OOS rate beside it — not the same rate over a shorter window — so the two are not directly comparable, and the national vehicle benchmark is not applied to this line.

Inspection coverage· expected vs observed · the fraud signal

Inspection coverage

How heavily FMCSA inspects this fleet for its size — it tells you how much to trust the safety signals above. Thin coverage on a young authority is a fraud signal nobody else surfaces.

Few roadside inspections for a 10-unit fleet — the out-of-service and violation signals above rest on a small sample, so weight them cautiously. Thin coverage on a young authority is itself a flag.

Percentile = standing among same-exposure peers (higher = worse). FMCSA publishes percentiles for only some carriers (shown official); elsewhere we show a Vektor peer-percentile estimate, or the absolute SMS measure when there are too few inspections to rank.
