No roadside inspections in this period.

How these rates are calculated

Period: Oct 20, 2024 – Oct 20, 2026. Vehicle rate = vehicle inspections with a vehicle out-of-service order ÷ vehicle inspections (levels 1, 2, 5 and 6). Driver rate uses levels 1, 2, 3 and 6. The Minnesota average covers 31,529 vehicle and 62,829 driver inspections of all Minnesota-based carriers in this period. It mixes every type of operation, so compare with care; rates based on a handful of inspections say little. FMCSA's own SMS measures are weighted differently: SMS profile · SAFER snapshot

Questions about Philipps Bus Service Inc

What does Philipps Bus Service Inc's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for Philipps Bus Service Inc (MC136225), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about Philipps Bus Service Inc is old or missing?

Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. No insurance filings were found in the public data. There are too few vehicle inspections in the last 24 months to judge the out-of-service rate. The MCS-150 was last updated Jan 11, 2024, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.

What should I verify before booking Philipps Bus Service Inc?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 128280. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (507) 454-5677, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC136225, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
