Review before tenderingHazmat-authorized78 power units
CANNONBALL TRUCKING INC (USDOT 338347) in HOUSTON, TX — has findings to review before tendering. FMCSA authority, fleet size, BASIC safety measures, crash and inspection history.

- No pending authority revocation.
- Not under an uncleared federal out-of-service or safety action.

- Satisfactory safety rating.
- No BASIC alerts in any of the five public SMS categories.

- 3 preventable crash(es) in the last 24 months; recordable crash rate not available.
- No fatal crashes in the last 24 months.
- No link to a prior revoked authority.
- Authority involuntarily revoked 17 times, most recent 2020-06-01 — recurring instability (typically insurance-lapse / reinstate cycles).
- FMCSA compliance review on file dated 2004-06-30 (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.
