- Authority suspended in the last 12 monthsMC1021327: suspended: insurance cancelled on Aug 26, 2026, active again now. A lapse usually means insurance was cancelled; ask for a current certificate of insurance.
- Liability insurance lapsed in the last 12 monthsINCLINE CASUALTY COMPANY policy cancelled Feb 11, 2026; the next filing took effect Feb 26, 2026, 15 days later. During a lapse the company had no liability insurance on file with FMCSA; ask for a current certificate of insurance.
No cargo cover filed with FMCSA
Green means the FMCSA record shows it. It does not confirm who you are talking to, or that a policy covers your specific load.
What to verify next
- Confirm authority and insurance on the official Motus record ↗. Safety record: SAFER ↗.
- Call back on the number on file, (980) 808-5950, not a number from an email or load board.
- Check that the MC number you were given is MC1021327.
- Ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
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 South Carolina average covers 18,696 vehicle and 40,851 driver inspections of all South Carolina-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
10 violations counted in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System (SMS), 4 of them serious enough to put the driver or vehicle out of service.
Why is this different from the 14 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.

"Share" is this company's mix of violations; the South Carolina column is the mix across all South Carolina-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 RICH ROOTS TRUCKING LLC
What does RICH ROOTS TRUCKING LLC's operating authority allow?
MC1021327: Motor carrier (may haul regulated property for hire).
Which information about RICH ROOTS TRUCKING LLC is old or missing?

What should I verify before booking RICH ROOTS TRUCKING LLC?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3247526. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (980) 808-5950, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1021327, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
