- No pending authority revocation.

- No cargo insurance on file. Required for many shipper contracts.
- 2 prior insurance lapse(s) on record, most recent began 2017-02-09 — the carrier let required coverage lapse before.

- No fatal crashes in the last 24 months.

- Authority involuntarily revoked 6 times, most recent 2016-11-29 — recurring instability (typically insurance-lapse / reinstate cycles).
- FMCSA compliance review on file dated 2013-05-22 (C).
- Crash Indicator and Hazmat Compliance BASICs are statutorily withheld from public SMS under the FAST Act — their absence is not a clean record; use the crash-risk signals above instead.
