Insurance on file

Liability (BI&PD) pays for injury and damage to other people and property; it does not cover the freight. Cargo insurance covers the freight. FMCSA only requires cargo filings from household goods carriers and freight forwarders, so most carriers file none: ask for a cargo certificate that fits your load. No cargo cover filed with FMCSA.

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 California average covers 398,742 vehicle and 510,354 driver inspections of all California-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 ↗

Violations in FMCSA's SMS last 24 months

316 violations counted in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System (SMS), 124 of them serious enough to put the driver or vehicle out of service.

Why is this different from the 438 violations above?

The inspections section's number counts every violation written on the inspection reports in our Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 2026 window. The SMS count comes from FMCSA's own monthly SMS snapshot, which uses its own 24-month window and only the violations it scores. Both are FMCSA figures; they measure different things.

"Share" is this company's mix of violations; the California column is the mix across all California-based carriers, so you can see which kinds of problems stand out. A high count partly reflects fleet size and how often trucks are inspected.

Questions about JOE'S LOGISTICS INC

What does JOE'S LOGISTICS INC's operating authority allow?

MC526609: Motor carrier (may haul regulated property for hire).

Which information about JOE'S LOGISTICS INC is old or missing?

Nothing notable: authority and insurance come from current Motus data and there is enough inspection history to compare.

What should I verify before booking JOE'S LOGISTICS INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 1380891. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (530) 510-0452, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC526609, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.

Other companies using (530) 510-0452

A shared number is common for related companies, dispatch services and family businesses. It is not proof of fraud, but it is worth knowing which company you are dealing with.
