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 Illinois average covers 195,366 vehicle and 387,861 driver inspections of all Illinois-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 Z Bros Ventures Inc
What does Z Bros Ventures Inc's operating authority allow?
FMCSA records show no active operating authority for Z Bros Ventures Inc (MC736179), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.
Which information about Z Bros Ventures 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. FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe. The MCS-150 was last updated Jan 17, 2011, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.
What should I verify before booking Z Bros Ventures Inc?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 2111513. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (847) 875-0592, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC736179, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
