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

- No cargo insurance on file. Required for many shipper contracts.

- 1 other active carrier(s) operate from this exact street + ZIP. High counts are often legitimate registered-agent / virtual-office addresses — treat as context, not a verdict.
- 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.
