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 16-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.

Reincarnated carrier — prior authority was revoked
FMCSA links this carrier to a previously revoked authority: USDOT 2117612. Reincarnation is a primary chameleon-carrier pattern.
Named as the prior authority of newer carriers
1 carrier list this USDOT as their revoked predecessor: USDOT 2117612.
Last 12 months: 1 truck also ran under 1 other carrier
VINs inspected under this carrier were recently inspected under other USDOTs too — the active double-broker / shared-equipment signal: USDOT 148192Some overlap is legitimate (leased or sold equipment); review alongside the other signals.
