How these rates are calculated

Period: Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 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 Ohio average covers 110,511 vehicle and 182,282 driver inspections of all Ohio-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 ↗

Which information about EXPRESS VEHICLE SHIPPING LLC is old or missing?

What should I verify before booking EXPRESS VEHICLE SHIPPING LLC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 1284949. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (732) 513-3636, not a number from an email or load board message.
