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.

Network & fraud

Affiliated entities & reincarnation signals · for review, not a verdict

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 1709260Some overlap is legitimate (leased or sold equipment); review alongside the other signals.

Capacity consistency· registered vs roadside-observed power units

Registered capacity materially exceeds what is observed roadside — the MCS-150 may be stale or the fleet under-utilized.
