- No history of insurance lapses.
- Satisfactory safety rating.
- No BASIC alerts in any of the five public SMS categories.
- Driver and vehicle out-of-service rates are at or below the national roadside average.

- No link to a prior revoked authority.
- FMCSA compliance review on file dated 2005-11-22 (J).
