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 Wisconsin average covers 42,218 vehicle and 76,980 driver inspections of all Wisconsin-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

6 violations counted in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System (SMS), 2 of them serious enough to put the driver or vehicle out of service.

Why is this different from the 9 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.

A high count partly reflects fleet size and how often trucks are inspected.

Questions about H J MARTIN & SON INC

What does H J MARTIN & SON INC's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for H J MARTIN & SON INC (MC1667354), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about H J MARTIN & SON 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 The MCS-150 was last updated Aug 20, 2024, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.

What should I verify before booking H J MARTIN & SON INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 253649. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (920) 494-3461, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1667354, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
