Every inspection in the window pooled — 22 vehicle and 37 driver inspections over 24 months.
Share of vehicle-level roadside inspections in each trailing six-month window that resulted in a vehicle out-of-service order. Trending up 5.6 pts across the window. The national vehicle benchmark uses the same metric and is shown on the chart.

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.

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.
ELD & hours-of-service
No hours-of-service or ELD violations on record across 46 inspections — a clean logging history.
