Review before tenderingHazmat-authorized66 power units

JOEL PINGEON TRUCKING INC (USDOT 1072683) in SPRINGFIELD, MN — has findings to review before tendering. FMCSA authority, fleet size, BASIC safety measures, crash and inspection history.

  • No link to a prior revoked authority.
  • Authority involuntarily revoked 2 times, most recent 2005-11-23 — recurring instability (typically insurance-lapse / reinstate cycles).
  • FMCSA compliance review on file dated 2010-05-19 (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. The Hazmat Compliance BASIC is also withheld for this hazmat carrier.
