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 Illinois average covers 195,435 vehicle and 388,021 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 KOR TRANSPORTATION INC
What does KOR TRANSPORTATION INC's operating authority allow?
FMCSA records show no active operating authority for KOR TRANSPORTATION INC (MC87085), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.
Which information about KOR TRANSPORTATION INC is old or missing?
Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. Insurance filings are from the same May 14, 2026 snapshot. 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.
What should I verify before booking KOR TRANSPORTATION INC?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3119441. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (224) 707-0731, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC87085, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
