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 Texas average covers 347,521 vehicle and 460,200 driver inspections of all Texas-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 COTTO LOGISTICS INC

What does COTTO LOGISTICS INC's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for COTTO LOGISTICS INC (MC170358), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about COTTO LOGISTICS 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. 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 COTTO LOGISTICS INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3200639. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (832) 716-1534, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC170358, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
