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 18, 2024 – Oct 18, 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 Indiana average covers 61,530 vehicle and 111,152 driver inspections of all Indiana-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

103 violations counted in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System (SMS), 28 of them serious enough to put the driver or vehicle out of service.

Why is this different from the 138 violations above?

The inspections section's number counts every violation written on the inspection reports in our Oct 18, 2024 – Oct 18, 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 Indiana column is the mix across all Indiana-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 SECURITY TRANSPORT INC

What does SECURITY TRANSPORT INC's operating authority allow?

MC795293: Motor carrier (may haul regulated property for hire).

Which information about SECURITY TRANSPORT INC is old or missing?

What should I verify before booking SECURITY TRANSPORT INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 2329669. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (708) 390-0455, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC795293, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
